As an artist, I draw inspiration from the everyday moments and memories that shape my understanding of the world. My paintings blur the lines between reality and imagination, inviting viewers to reevaluate their relationships with the natural world.
Through the use of recurring motifs - animals, hands, shoes, and the landscape - I explore the intricate web of connections between humans and the environment. By attributing human-like qualities to animals, my work challenges the boundaries between species and encourages empathy and introspection.
The domestic setting of my home studio, where personal and professional life intersect, influences my creative process and reinforces the themes of interconnectedness that permeate my paintings.
Ultimately, my paintings serve as a reflection of our complex and multifaceted relationship with the environment, inviting viewers to contemplate their place within the larger ecosystem.
