LAST FRIDAY'S OPENING OF THE RETROSPECTIVE "ONARETROAPRIL8" WAS A GREAT SUCCESS WITH ALMOST 100 VISITORS. THE AMBIANCE AT VILLA DE SEIN, THE LIVELY CONVERSATIONS WITH OUR GUESTS AND THE WIDE RANGE OF ARTWORKS INSPIRED THE AUDIENCE. FOR THE FIRST TIME, THE BREADTH AND COMPLEXITY OF MY WORK OVER THE PAST 25 YEARS HAS BEEN MADE ACCESSIBLE TO A WIDER AUDIENCE. IN VARIOUS CONVERSATIONS WITH THE GUESTS, THE STORIS AND THOUGHTS BEHIND MY PAINTINGS WERE MADE TRANSPARENT AND UNDERSTANDABLE.

​

MY DESIRE TO INITIATE THOUGHT PROCESSES WITH MY WORKS AND TO HOLD THE MIRROR OF LIFE UP TO US AS WELL TO SHOW US THE OPPORTUNITIES THAT THE FUTURE HOLDS HAS BEEN MORE THAN FULFILLED.

 

ARTWORKS SUCH AS "CONNECTED ODDS", MY FIRST PAINTING, THAT I PAINTED AS A CHILD WITH MY MOTHER OR KELLY SLATERS' ENDLESS SUMMER SURFBOARD HAVE SET PRIORITIES.

 

THE PAINTINGS WILL REMAIN ON DISPLAY AT THE VILLA DE SEIN UNTIL THE END OF MAY. PERSONAL TOURS ARE ALSO POSSIBLE BY APPOINTMENT.
