Artist Statement
“Moved by curiosity and appreciation for nature, I aim for positivity in my work where I gravitate towards spontaneity and the unexpected discoveries in the studio. I’m passionate about the constant learning and the experiments with new techniques and their resulting textures.
My work range from a quiet intensity moved by the calm of meditative lines to more expressive textured paintings that to me, can speak more than words. One of my happiest accomplishments come from bringing a sense of joy and inspiration to others with my art”.
