ARTIST STATEMENT/BIO
My goal as an artist is to create visual spaces of refuge, where the noise of the everyday world fades away. Through the principles of Impressionism, plein air landscape painting, the Colorist technique, and an intuitive sense of composition, I conjure scenes that invite a peaceful escape. These works are moments frozen in time, like colorful memories that hold only the most essential details—softly blurred, unhurried, and steeped in a gentle mystery. Each piece aims to offer a quiet sanctuary, where the viewer can breathe deeply, find stillness, and experience the world in a more meditative, intimate way.
