just seems like this site doesn't really work. ugh.
My artworks involve in critical and ironic views of social, political and cultural issues, in which I attempt to convey a message that deconstruct details from our daily life and old memories that I got from my Homeland as well from my new land and then synthesize them to get new shapes, thoughts and ideas. Such an attempt is colored by my personal experiences as a wounded expatriate plucked from the earth of his birth, from the land that nourished his very soul. My artworks tell stories constitute a major anchor in the history of peoples and archiving infinite capriciousness.
I was lucky my visit to Royal Botanical Gardens in Burlington coincided with a really fine weather and the Irises were in full bloom... in all their breathtaking glory... How could I resist painting them! I had once read that the word iris means “rainbow”, it was named after a Greek Goddess who is considered the messenger of love and uses the rainbow to travel. In this watercolor painting I have tried to capture the spirit of this beauty...the space and atmosphere around the flower ... and the luminosity and softness of the petals. I hope you like it and it brings a smile to your eyes. For my new paintings visit - lelacreations.blogspot.com Facebook- www.facebook.com/lelacreations
