The art of healing comes from nature not from the physician. Therefore the physician must start from nature with an open mind.

In our life there is a single color as on an artist's palette which provides the meaning of life and art. It is the color of love.

Anyway I feel myself a bit on the edge on the art world but I don't mind I'm just pursuing my work in a very excited way. And there isn't really a mainstream anymore is there?

I always feel like the art's there and I just see it so it's not really a lot of work.

All art is exorcism. I paint dreams and visions too the dreams and visions of my time. Painting is the effort to produce order order in yourself. There is much chaos in me much chaos in our time.
