Bio:
When I was younger, I created art for myself. I drew, painted, and photographed wildlife, sports, landscapes, and architecture. It was a personal emotional outlet, rarely shared with others. As I matured, I began making art for my family, aiming to bring them joy or evoke shared emotions. A few years ago, I started to focus more, realizing my work had evolved to express emotions—pain, joy, or consternation. I drew inspiration from nature and architecture, blending the hard and soft elements of our environment. My love for the human form also found its way into my work, creating fluid, moving emotions. Please enjoy the depth and feeling in my art.
