  • About me

    Being an introvert, art has always been a wordless vehicle of expressing and sharing a piece of my inner world. I have always had a passion and need to create. This need is fulfilled by watching paint move and transform into full expressions of my emotions, perceptions, inspirations, dreams, etc. Art is a gateway into completely losing myself and showing others how I perceive the world.

    My nature is to observe others and capture their essence on canvas. I love painting watercolor portraits because it allows me to capture a snapshot of my subjects’ inner self. Seeing another’s eyes fill with tears when they see the face of their loved one captured on canvas is the greatest compliment.

    Acrylics provide a free flowing platform for me to express slices of inspirations. I have lived in many places and have met many interesting people, all of which have left an impression and shaped my visual expressions. I paint because I love to create and I love seeing the pleasure it brings to others.
