The vibrant paintings feature subjects which has emotional connection to the artist, whether it is nature, landscape, cityscape, portraits or abstract.

Statement
My work is an interpretation of how I feel and understand emotions around me as well as how I react to it, my intention is to portray the complexity of emotions from one person to another.
The paintings are from a series of paintings about emotions and different feelings in gathering.
The inspiration of this series developed from the following quote:
" Great minds discuss ideas, average minds discuss events, small minds discuss people" Eleanor Roosevelt
In each painting, there are different eyes: happy, laughing, careless, curious, boring and many more. It is interesting to define what is your mood in a gathering and which eye is yours.
