Gregory Moni
When my beloved father passed away a short time ago, I found particular peace and solace in being creative and expressing my feelings through my art. I wanted to create the world I envision my late father must be seeing through the windows of paradise. Through my particular approach to the abstract medium, I wish to bring a unique sense of spirituality to my art
