| Introduction | Original paintings- abstract art on stretched canas by Sej. "My art is a physical response to the world around me. It is a pure expression of life's energy. It is my response to the music I listen to . It is the clouds in the sky, the sun on my skin, the breath of the ocean passing through my window. I paint from a truly intuitive space- and the best reults I get are purely unrestrained works of art. My art is pure energy.When I'm painting, emotions begin to dissolve before my eyes and my thoughts evolve into something altogether new. I often refer to my canvases as ghosts- the blank white echoes a past that once was, and my art is the revealing of a moment, a resonance of life or memories through painting" Sej works on large scale canvas and multi-panel pieces to create original and powerful statement art full of energy and dynamic visuals. |
