Carpe Diem Series

In essence, the series Carpe Diem is intended to be an ode to peace. Whereas man’s inhumanity to man sows but the seeds of death, these bursts of unrestrained colour remind us that the earth is, in itself, the seed of life.

"Le regard des autres"

I’m drawn to colour and I always have been. The marbles and candies of childhood. Mesmerizing. Rows of pastels and jars of paint. Captivating. When I finish with a particular mix I keep it around for some time, refusing to throw it away! It’s all about colour.
