Having chosen not to exhibit much of his work before, he is now at the threshold of a new opportunity which I am happy to be a part of.

His unique work needs to be seen and enjoyed on walls, on clothes, on cards, in books or any surface where people can receive his sense of enjoyment and creative freedom. A sincere, humble and deeply spiritual mind, he is fascinated by a Universe of endless possibilities. His message to children and adults alike is simply to enjoy being creative! Draw. Create.

Paint. Try it. Do it!

Conceptual fine art it is not. Joyful Art from the soul, it is.
