Because I grew up in the country, the love I have for the island and my understanding of its heritage and culture makes me want to do my utmost to paint them on canvas. Memories deep-rooted in my head, I try to capture the years that have passed – the golden rice fields, all those things that happened on haystacks, walking back and forth on ridges, the beautiful canola fields, green mountains, buildings along the old street, wall corners of old houses and the hustle and bustle of small ports.
