About the Author

Art is one of the strongest forces in the world. It can take anyone anywhere they wish to go. Art has an irresistible effect on most artists: especially the talented ones who do not know why they have been given these creative skills.

Art is not something that can be given up easily. I have tried in the past to relinquish my dreams to become an artist, but I could not. My pencil would not leave me alone. When I have a pencil in my pocket I cannot resist the urge to draw. In fact, I will spend the entire day creating from my heart and soul.

The works I am exhibiting celebrates my life within my culture and which I maintain my connection with my home.

The colors, subject matter and concepts stem from everyday experiences in the place I call home.
