Successful as a conservative painter, Senda struck out in 1956 toward a freer mode of painting. The canvases are dynamic, his interest is in space and movement. The strokes cluster and group themselves, moving with ease from canvas edge to converge with force. New Dimension and Sound of Valley are the most successful.
