Painting is Kaspa’s medium of choice for creative expression. He values the freedom it provides in his creative process, particularly through the use of collage, thick brush strokes, and varying black and scribbled lines. These techniques allow him to convey his u
nique perceptions of moods, which he shares with his audience.
Kaspa’s great passions in life are travel, adventure, and painting. Painting enables him not only to record his personal experiences and moments but also to preserve the nature and history that his audience can enjoy. His works reflect the diversity and beauty of his world experiences.
