He explored a wide range of artistic traditions and techniques to arrive at his unique visual language. In the above nail drawing on paper the artist has executed the portrait of a woman with bold, smooth lines highlighting the contours of her figure. The use of calligraphic strokes adds rhythm and dynamism to the composition.
