Biography

Artist's Statement

My Neighbours--Diptych  sold
(click to enlarge)
oil on canvas
6000 LE (US $1090)

Landscape has always been important to me. The return journey from school was through the flat lands of The Fens, East Anglia, England, which allowed me to stare in awe at the beauty of sunsets. To be later inspired by the paintings of Claude Lorraine, Reuben, Constable, Turner and Rothko, I have decided to use their inspiration to create the landscapes of “My Neighbours”. Here in Egypt I attempt to show the contrast between City and Countryside of my immediate neighbours and the beauty of their surroundings.
