Helene Mukhtar strives to reconnect with the spontaneity of her inner child while celebrating the resilience and strength of the human spirit. She concentrates on acrylic paint and explores textures, thickness and brush strokes combined with an energetic and pulsating color palette. Her cheerful, cartoon-style characters add a touch of humor while bright and muscular colors associated with a fearless painting style create dramatic impact.
