About me

My art invites emotion. It brings into the home an experience that can delight, move, calm, or inspire wonder—again and again. I believe that true art doesn’t merely fill a space; it touches something deeper.

I’m drawn to religion, mysticism, myths, and mythology—as well as the human place within the vastness of the universe. I am a seeker, a believer, a skeptic, and an experimenter. Art is my way of exploring meaning, processing hidden emotions, and giving form to the invisible. For me, creation is both a personal journey and a way to connect with something greater.

In recent years, I’ve immersed myself in the possibilities of digital art, combining traditional painting techniques with digital image processing to create a layered visual language. This fusion of two worlds brings new dimensions to my expression and breathes contemporary life into traditional methods.
