He is nature mystic and believes in delineating the poetry that is dormant with landscapes and the environment. He works mostly in Acrylic and Oils. The images refer to the representational world but as he works they transform into a non-representational format. Frequently fragments of the figurative world make an appearance. There is a subtle nuance in each work that builds us as the colours and shapes communicate with each other. As the painting grows, he gets more and more involved. Finally, he gives himself up completely. There lies the charm of his work.
