So, many of you know that Niru Aunty (Alpen's mom--if you don't know already) and I share a passion for art. It has been years since I have been art-ing, but recently, I have seen the resurgence of art in my life. Here are a sample of a few of my current paintings--the first one is called "Balance" and is a favorite of my Dad's and the other "El Beso" was a gift for a Palestinian friend. I should let you know that my harshest critic is none other than Alpen himself---his thoughtful and at times brutal opinions regarding the colors, proportions, and complexity of my paintings are a much loathed (yet appreciated) response to my over-eager "do you like it?" Geez Alpen, couldn't a simple "yes, it's nice" suffice?
