MY  EARLY  WORKS
​(1980-1989) 

Aside from my night sky drawing, my earliest works were portraits in oil, mostly created in the early eighties. My influences were  the American painter Alice Neel,  and the great British portraitist Lucian Freud.  Though I eventually abandoned the idea of painting portraits to pursue the theme of the night sky and public mural painting, I may one day return to painting in oil. Here are three portraits I painted during my early years.
