Artist Thoughts:
"In a painting, like in a song, there are words and there is music, and they are not always born at the same time, but they can exist without one another. In the same way that beautiful paintings characteristics, without an idea, have no purpose. Likewise, a subject without strong artistic presentation becomes a boring story."
Additional Information:
