"Every human being is born with an innate, unique beauty. When I paint portraits, I devote the most care and attention to discovering the “unseen beauty” that each person inherently possesses and capturing it on the canvas. The purpose of a portrait is not merely to paint a likeness of the person. Even a camera can do that. While capturing likeness, I look beyond the surface to discover the unique, unseen beauty inherent in each person."
