P. Nizamas "inner necessity" to express emotional perceptions that led to the
development of an abstract style of painting is based on non representational
properties of color, shade and form.
Paula's abstract and figurative compositions are the culmination of artist's efforts to
create "a pure painting" that would provide the same emotional power as a musical
composition.
An artist views the compositions as major statement of artistic ideas. Just as
symphonies define milestones in the career of a composer. Paula's abstract and
figurative compositions represents the culmination of artistic vision at a given
moment in an artist's career. |
