B achelor of Fine Ar ts
As far back as my memory takes me, I remember myself with a drawing tool in my
hands. Robbing charcoals from my neighbor’s warehouse and drawing on large walls
opposite my home, was the most exciting time that I remember. Energy, vigor and
depth always intrigued me since childhood. My father, an extremely creative and
imaginative person, pushed my creative limits, which added life to my shapes and
forms. His narration of a story used to be a breathtaking experience and that became
the basis of my communication through art. My gentle mother is my role model for
my emotional connect with life and all it encompasses.
History, modern viewpoint to mythology, festivity, people, wildlife, music,
local outdoor life around me became my main source of life energy.
