About
 

I’m a visual artist specializing in combining traditional media with digital art and beyond. In my work, there is both light and shadow, beauty and imperfection, reflecting humanity itself. I often choose subjects that aren’t conventionally attractive as a way to challenge perceptions, provoke the viewer, and blur the line between what’s considered beautiful or good and what’s seen as ugly or bad. My art is a reflection of all of us: complex, contradictory, undecided, dark, and colorful.

Each piece holds personal meaning, tied to my experiences and emotions. For a long time, I struggled to explain why I make my work. Then I realized: I can’t really talk about it. My work is my voice. It tells a story, expresses a thought, a feeling, an idea, describes a moment, or shares a discovery I want to convey. At the same time, I welcome viewers to interpret it in their own way. What people see in my work is often a reflection of themselves, and this dialogue becomes a doorway to understanding others, sparking reflection and conversation.

Bold colors, powerful contrasts, and smooth blending define my work. I’m deeply interested in texture, shape, and breaking beyond the flatness of the canvas, experimenting with materials from plaster to plastic objects to give volume to my pieces. Digital, photography, and painting intermingle, each informing the other and expanding the possibilities of my practice.

Expressing ourselves is a fundamental human need, yet it is done less and less. Through my work, I hope to communicate and connect with the world, to leave a legacy, and to create a bridge between myself and others, a bridge that invites both sharing and listening, curiosity and connection.

Commissions and freelance  



In addition to creating my own personal artwork, I also work as a freelance visual artist and illustrator. You can commission me for projects ranging from traditional painting and illustration to digital art, and I bring the same creativity, boldness, and attention to detail that defines my personal work. With over 12 years of experience in traditional and digital media, I’ve developed a distinctive, imaginative style that combines storytelling, texture, and color to bring ideas to life.

Training

My background includes extensive hands-on experience in print, graphic design, and illustration, including digital printing and silk screen techniques. I hold a Foundation Diploma in Art and Design from Blake College, London, awarded with distinction, as well as a Developing Your Creativity course diploma from Central Saint Martins, London, UK. 

I’ve also expanded into UX and design thinking, completing courses in User Experience, Human-Computer Interaction, and UI Design Patterns, which allow me to approach projects with both creative and user-centered perspectives. I work fluently across traditional and digital mediums, including pen-and-ink, pencil, acrylic, oil, and digital platforms such as Adobe Suite, blending these skills to produce work that is visually compelling, technically polished, and conceptually strong.
