Time Out says

Expressive features reflect from the canvas paintings of artist Jayantha Silva, whose realistic figurative drawings and portraits showcase numerous human expressions and emotions. Jayantha has masterfully captured small moments of time that resonate within the viewer. Astute use of charcoal, acrylic and soft pastels breathes life into the subjects that range from the young to old.

"As a child I was always interested in figures and portraits. It is mostly from my memory and imagination, observing what is around me. I look at things and I remember things", says Jayantha. The paintings are inspired by Jayantha Silva's imagination and the power of his eidetic memory, which subconsciously remembers features that he later may draw on the canvas. The title 'Expressions' aptly describes the theme Jayantha bases his work on.
