My interest in painting developed in college. As a student, I participated in several university group shows and competitions and won several scholastic awards. In 1974, I had my first solo show at the University Physicians Club. My second show was two years at the Centre Culturel Francais (French Cultural Center) in Alexandria. I produce an average of 50 medium and large size paintings a year in addition to a number of small size paintings and drawings. My favorite medium is Acrylic and oil. The subjects of my paintings vary. The style reflects an Egyptian and South Mediterranean influence. Many of my paintings depict human figures. The characters are involved in a struggle. They are captives of time and the reason for their existence.
