| Why Did You Become An Artist |
Have been an artist since very young with great skill in drawing, etching, painting in realism. I have own businesses and worked in the real estate business half my life, yet creating art brings to me the greatest pleasure. The art world I feel has lost it's way many years ago, and even today there is very little originality. The important biennials, museums, and galleries depict a great emptiness in artistic content. I always thought I could create great art, then I stopped for 25 years, and now something is bringing me back. I became an artist when I was born, as Van Gogh could not avoid being himself, Picasso also said he did not know how to do anything else. |
