My Inspiration
theres some Sculptors like Isamu Nogushi ,Henrry Moore ,Brancusi ,Mark Disuvero , that really inspire me by technic use in stone and Steel , the monumental aspect of creation ,the nature by natural forms its the most creation of universe chaping by the billion years and when came to me its the power of expression color sound the vibration of forms create the picture the act Gesture of molding the idea most forms of my sculpture already there ,i just take whats around and i discover something inside of me by carving .
