ARTIST’S STATEMENT
“A painting is finished when it comes close to nature. Likewise, a rhinoplasty ends when the nose looks natural. I work both as a portrait artist and a rhinoplasty surgeon. Each career requires skill and dedication and together promote excellence in seeking a result true to life.”
