​I’ve been creating art since the 1990s, when home computers first sparked my curiosity. That passion soon expanded into traditional media like pencil, pen, gouache, oil, and mixed media, where I found digital and physical art equally meaningful. My work is a form of self-expression; using bold colors, texture, and abstract impressionism to evoke emotion without relying on realism. Over time, my process has shifted from control to trust; letting inspiration unfold naturally. Each piece is an exploration and that sense of discovery keeps me coming back.​
