‘‘Art is life’’ so we said, for me Art is everything . Its the best way for me to express myself . Painting is something i can’t do without. I paint human figures, trying to place myself in their shoes, and to try and feel their emotions and expressions. I pass messages through my paintings because for me that’s the best way for me to express myself.
