What is of interest to me in painting is the limitless possibilities of expression and suggestion. Working with paint: its layering and movement, plasticity and ethericity all add up to a different understanding and experience in the media, being a parallel language of the image. I often turn to images from the surrounding environment, which awaken different associations outside their context. In my work I try to reach an honest, real experience and enjoyment of the painting process.
