Profile
Growing up, two things fascinated me: building bridges and painting. Building bridges became my profession, which I love. As painting remains a hobby, it is still a way to express my thoughts, life, the beauty in my surroundings, and sometimes a way to escape to a dream world. This site is a station for all my oil paintings, which I hope you enjoy as much as I do. I always enjoyed and appreciated all sorts of art. However, oil paintings have been by far the only type of art I am drawn to. I can say it was never as part of my life as it is now. I put my thoughts in perspective and painting has occupied more space in my life than before. I have become more aware to make time to paint rather than wait for the free time to announce itself. Overall, I am enjoying every aspect of it. The stages of paintings are fun; and seeing my paintings complete add more joy to my day.




Woman with an Umbrella
Currently I’m studying the old impressionist style when the impressionism evolved in the late 1860s by the French artist Claude Monet (1840 – 1926) who pioneered Impressionism.Camille Donicieux (1847-79), was Monet wife and model for many paintings. One of them is the “Woman with a Parasol - Madame Monet and Her Son, 1875”; was one of Monet most famous paintings. Monet painted his wife and son outdoors during a casual family outing. Original painting is Oil Painting On Canvas with an overall size: 100 x 81 cm (39 3/8 x 31 7/8 in.).
Monet Portrait
At the same time, I am studying another piece of art painted by Pierre-Auguste Renoir (1841-1919) who is a close friend of Claude Monet. Renoir and Monet worked closely together during the late 1860s. Renoir was a leading painter in the development of the Impressionist style. I was always enthralled by Renoir’s painting of Claude Monet in 1872, when Monet was 32. I am currently studying this piece.

Flower Woman
In order to compare modern impressionism to the impressionism of Renoir and Monet, I am studying a piece painted originally by Richard Johnson.
The Morning Breeze
I found out that many artists like to paint “The morning Breeze”. So I’ve decided to have my own “The morning Breeze”. This painting is for a model walking in a jungle through “The morning Breeze”!!
The Blind Story
An unhappy woman met a blind man, who became her boyfriend later. While
they were chatting, she asked him; “why are you always happy? I feel sad
most of the times.” Her blind boyfriend grabbed a blindfold, covered her eyes, and asked her:
“What do you see now?”
“Nothing,” she replied.
He smiled and said: “Great! This is your blank canvas. Now you can paint
whatever you want on it.”…
