Art of Taskin

  I love dance and have created paintings inspired by dance in fact inspired from within.   Dance, as an art form itself, its like painting but using the body as a canvas to express a mood or evoke an emotion. For me, this is a reflection of the dancer having a dream and using visual music to express herself freely. When she has 'learnt to use the language of the soul to express a silent poetry that speaks from her heart she has learnt to dance to the rhythm of life

In those moments of inspiration, it is vital to translate ideas into paintings! otherwise the idea is lost.... It was in one of those moments when 'Taking a Walk in the Maze' was created. I had just finished 'Life is a Maze' and I was preparing to display it for a local exhibition in April when the idea came up of doing a 'sequel' to it.....an extension of the 'Life is a Maze' so both can be displayed together in the exhibition...       Life is a Maze  I & II oil & acrylic on canvas  100 cm x 90 cm   75 cm x 50 cm © 2014
