Art inspiration: The grandeur of nature and the abundance of color. The grandeur is overwhelming and sometimes even awe-inspiring. It is from this awareness that the girl in my paintings basically stands as if she were swallowed by nature.
The occasional display of a powerful force and my own unique view of life and death are also part of my inspiration.
Style: Black Background and Girl Painting
Favourite Artists: Nothing in particular so far. Maybe we will find it in the future!
Favourite piece you have worked on: It is updated every time. However, I dare to say that I like “Landscape with Sea and Flowers” and “Forest and Lake (2024)” because I think I was able to paint them in my own way.
