As a contemporary painter, I work with acrylic fine paints, mediums, and 3D mediums for relief and texturing. I use brushes and linen canvases. My subjects are always connected to nature and light, as I see nature as an endless flow of inspiration, power, and creation. By focusing on nature, trees, and the environment, my works aim to create nuanced visual expressions that highlight the interaction between the human soul and all the flows of light.
My goal is to evoke emotional depth, freedom, calmness, and serenity through my artworks and paintings. My artistic journey intertwines with themes of what is behind nature, the power it holds, and mystical landscapes and gardens that transcend dimensions. I seek to explore the pursuit of happiness and inner peace amidst life’s complexities, transforming challenges into new perspectives and hopeful revelations. Drawing inspiration from the expansive themes of nature, I aim to elevate happiness through art.
When I create my paintings, I work with acrylic and strive to transcend conventional forms of expression. Delving into the ineffable and embracing the light—always the light of the soul—I aspire to reach new heights in colorful performance and uncharted realms of expression.
