As a self-taught artist with a passion for creating new and distinctive art, I enjoy working in a variety of paint mediums. I look to create new and evocative art without a predetermined outcome in mind, which allows for the free flow of emotion, translating thought and feeling for others to share and enjoy.

Just as I enjoy playing various musical instruments by ear rather than formally reading the music, I allow myself to move spontaneously with my painting by rarely following the rules and parameters that many artists follow. This can be both exciting and scary too. 

Art enables me to communicate my inmost love for life in full and vibrant colour. Through the interplay of colour and the emotional connection, I wish to express my own inner peace and joy.

I held my first solo exhibition in 1977 in my native Sri Lanka. This early genesis led me to explore the freedoms I found in art and especially painting, exploring working with different mediums to establish my own distinctive style. I now work mainly in oils and acrylics but have been experimenting with cold wax medium and oil.

I have enjoyed and benefited from being a member of the created to thrive artist mentorship programme with Matt Tommey, being listed in the modern artist directory. http://www.matttommeymentoring.com/christianartistdirectory
