Statement

A Voyage Through Hue and Imagination

From doctor and entrepreneur to artist, my journey has led me to the vibrant world of abstract art. My past experiences in leadership and building a successful healthtech company instilled in me the importance of vision, discipline, and a relentless pursuit of excellence. This translates into my rekindled artistic practice, where I constantly experiment and push boundaries to bring my creative vision to life.As a self-taught artist (“autodidactic”), I find deep satisfaction in creating dynamic, colorful abstract pieces. My signature “squeeze and splatter” technique deploys acrylics to bring life to large canvases, culminating in artworks that are both spontaneous and resonant

Nature’s Palette: Inspiration from Nature

The natural world serves as my endless source of inspiration. From manicured gardens to wild forests and towering peaks, I draw upon the rich tapestry of colors found on our planet. My art acts as a homage to the wonders I’ve witnessed – the fiery sunsets, the changing seasons, the quiet retreat of glaciers, and the intricate patterns woven by nature itself.

Capturing Ephemeral Beauty and Enduring Hope

The daily setting sun reminds us of life’s fleeting nature. Yet, within this brief existence lies a timeless sense of hope. My creations strive to capture this duality: the impermanence of life contrasted with the boundless possibilities that await.

A Sanctuary in a Chaotic World

In a world dominated by digital screens, social media, and materialism, my art offers a counterpoint. It serves as a guiding light, uplifting spirits and encouraging moments of quiet reflection to reconnect with ourselves. Through the interplay of color and form, I aim to spark joy, ignite optimism, and inspire contemplation about our shared journey – where we come from and where we are ultimately headed.
