Background:
INSPIRATION:
I'm always inspired by the beautiful and colorful things around me and I used those as my subjects to construct my artwork from.
My source of inspiration is the beauty of color.
EDUCATION AND EXPERIENCE:
I started painting seriously in 2003. I don't paint very often as I am also doing sculptures.
I paint for a lot of clients, especially the expatriates.
I have participated in a lot of exhibitions within and abroad, and some of those include;
- Waigani Arts and Crafts show,
- Luksave and
- the Rebecca Hossack Gallery in London,
... just to name a few.
I don't have a specific goal to achieve in painting but I do it for the fun of it. Besides, the feeling of how someone shows appreciation and wants to pay for it, gives the motivation and energy to paint more.
Above all, I want others to look at art from my perspective in order to understand and appreciate my art.
