Rootless people of this world, unite!

Personal identity in times of war and conflict is my main theme at the time. I prefer traditional tools and techniques that allow me to catch sudden ideas and strong emotions on the move. That means more drawing, less painting (but can change). Inspired by people and current events. Sharing what comes to mind. If that makes the viewer to stop and stare, it is the viewer, not the artist. My feeling is I am just a mirror and a tool in the hand of the big unknown. Sounds crazy and it is.
