I have been fond of drawing since young and creating art has always been an essential part of my life. Painting, in particular, requires much patience and sensitivity, but gives me such pleasure that for hours I forget everything else to focus on my painting and bring out its beauty. Another great joy for me is when others see my paintings and respond to what I try to express. I strive to convey a sense of peace while also using vibrant colors. Through my paintings, I’d like people to realise that the world is a truly colourful place, one worth being in — if painted with living colours of Love.

450km from Mongolia's capital city Ulaanbaatar, at the foot of Warrior Mountain in Khentii the birthplace of Chinggis Khaan, are the ruins of what looks like an ancient fortress: a 3km-long wall of stone 3m high, made entirely without mortar. Called "Almsgiver's Wall", the grounds are now a place of utter serenity where wild partridges nest and sheep graze.

Inspired by Psalm 18:2 "the Lord is my rock, my fortress and my deliverer", this painting is of sheep grazing in safety: with their shepherd's dwelling at the center and flanked by protective mountains, their range extends far beyond what any man-made structure may afford.
