Statement
I have always been creative and employ a diverse range of mediums and style.
My aim is to create powerful yet elegant compositions that resonate with energy, tension, and beauty, creating works that invite viewers to feel, rather than interpret.
My work is born from the intangible, whether from grief, memory, dreams, or song; and transformed through color, texture, and movement into something both visceral and beautiful. Abstract expressionism allows me to reach into the depths of emotion and imagination. Each piece begins in silence, in a space where feeling takes form through sweeping gestures, bold marks, and layered color, allowing the process to lead me. Every brush stroke, drip, and texture become part of a larger emotional narrative, unspoken, yet deeply felt. What emerges is not always a story, but an atmosphere, powerful, emotional, and deeply personal.
