who am i

Painting is my passion.

I see art in all things, and I love to paint what I see.

I have been an artist my whole life going away and coming back to it again, it was 2020 when I started to seriously paint consistently. My preferred medium is acrylic, but I also appreciate other forms of art too like linocut, gouache painting and graphite drawing.

art is not a talent

I believe that art is not a talent but a skill that anyone can attain. I love it so much it’s never left me even when I had years not doing it, it came back like riding a bike.
