Work is interpretive but representational with vibrant yet simplified image.
Planning, drawing and the knife or brush strokes along with an interpretation
of a subject. Even though some paintings are referred to as “still”, yet the
dynamism of shapes and colors are anything but still, but rather, when
designed properly, become dynamic.
