Artist's Statement
– Art is a goddess of dainty thought – reticent of habit – abjuring all obtrusiveness – proposing in no way to better others – She is withal selfishly occupied with her own perfection only – having no desire to teach – seeking and finding the beautiful in all conditions, and in all times –

Art, to me, is a personal retreat, a means to explore and express the depths of my imagination.
Proudly self-taught, I have dedicated my life to painting for the sheer joy it brings, immersing
myself in a world known only to my closest friends.
In an era where technology has led to aesthetic
degradation and pollution,
I find solace in turning my creativity inward. This website serves as my
humble
contribution to art, showcasing works from recent years and marking my first attempt
to share them publicly.
Why do I paint? Quite simply, it's essential to my well-being; without it,
I would be adrift.
My art is created to evoke enjoyment and a sense of emotional resonance
between myself and the viewer.
I leave my work open to interpretation—be it aesthetic,
symbolic, or psychological.
If it sparks your imagination, provokes thought, or elicits
positive emotions,
then I consider my mission accomplished.
