Artist statement

"Imagination, Creation & Dedication"

I paint from memory, transforming forms inspired by clouds and the human body through gesture and color. I give shape to emotion and seek to share the energy I bring to the canvas.

Why I Paint

A way to explore tension, movement, intuition, and the emotional weight carried by forms, colors, and marks. An excuse to lose myself in thought and deepen my imagination. To forget the passing of time without truly losing it.
