Artists’ statement:
I like painting because it makes me feel happy. I like using colours, especially bright hot colours, like orange. I like the OPSACS art group, I like the brushes and the paints – these are all things that are close to my heart.
This happy painting, “Summer Storm”, is about summer storms and cool breezes.
