I am just a creative person trying to express how I see, what affects me, what inspires me, what makes me love life and want to live it to its fullest every day.

I love visual arts for its capacity to capture the fleeting moment…to grab it spontaneously and fix it onto canvas…

Through my art, I try to express my values and beliefs, my passions and inspirations.

BODY MOVIN’ series is my very first take on painting people in motion. These paintings showcase youth, passion, vitality as well as the body language of attraction.

Self-expression through dance is the main theme of SAY IT LIKE YOU MEAN IT series. In these series, I aimed to portray the contrasts in moods and complexities of human character and how these can be communicated through dance and motion.

These dancers show strength and vulnerability, love and agression, some are confident, others turn away from the spotlight.

Dance, to me has an incredible power to inspire, to bring a new energy to the mix.
And with its power to inspire, it can heal.

Enjoy:)
