"Painting is like composing music on canvas. The colours and their relationships to each other can be as expressive as the chords and notes in music, and the brushstrokes can reveal a melody and rhythmic pattern. It is important to me to keep the artwork open to interpretation by the viewer so that there is something new to see each time. Just as you listen to music, you hear it differently each time and it is always very personal.
I strive to make the painting dynamic, with a musical movement that expresses a flow of time and thought. 'Music on canvas' is not an end in itself. The main goal is to express thoughts and feelings, to convey an emotional state and to evoke associations." - Junija Galejeva
