Bio & Statement
I am a physician and self taught artist. Disease especially pandemic relentlessly challenged and stirred our medical community. I renew my spirit with brush and palette. As a busy doctor, my work often includes placing Covid patients on ventilators. To help counteract my own fears, I dive into painting once I come home. My paintings were accepted in Biennale Art expo, Venice, Italy 2022 by jury selection. I was selected as a winner for International RTA (Respect the artist) awards, and had interviews by Foxvalley beat.
Nature is a real doctor that heals the soul, gives peace and motivates the discovery of endless new frontiers in life. The forests, landscapes, a tree, colorful flowers, birds, bees, insects tell the story of the endless possibilities of joy and grace to embrace.
