Sometimes, a painting can be done in only one sitting, only in a few seconds. However a painting can take several days, weeks and even several months to be done. What we are looking for in painting is “a crystal light” in the ocean of sense. That’s where The Light of The God is. But our existence will not always be there.

What I believe is: The beauty is always connected with honesty, clarity, the depth and simplicity. The Beauty is born when life is connected with The Almighty One. That’s where the true love is.

“To paint is to be simple”
