It all started with blank sheets of paper attached to the wall. After incalculable time of scrutiny at the blankness along with the mental explosions, I decided to mark some imagery on the ivory colored paper with bold black and red markers. The continuation of line drawing which formed caricature-like forms with an introduction of red dotted line and text, almost created a synchronization with my mental state of mind. The harmony of black and red together on white assisted my idea of cathartic exercise. Previously my art practice incorporated intricate thin line work with highly detailed miniature painting which exuded a sort of delicacy and fragility. My current practice broke that pattern. To be able to draw and illustrate fearlessly and extemporaneously - to observe the mindfulness. Allowing the core conscious or subconscious realms of self to project the creative signals regularly (on the daily basis) regardless of what theme it is following; forming a visual connection between the viewer and itself. The contrast built by the thickness of black and red lines allowed me to discover the gravity created by the weight of overlapping elements, patterns, figurative and non-figurative objects.
