Despite completing the Pedagogical Academy, I have always had a strong artistic audio and visual inclination since childhood. As a young child, I immersed myself in fairy tale books and often drifted away to fantastical worlds during class. Growing up near the sea, I drew inspiration from fishing boats, seagulls, and the ever-changing clouds. My paintings now reflect this whimsical world that I have always been captivated by.

Following a period of burnout and depression, painting became my therapeutic daytime pursuit, allowing me to create, reflect, and exhibit my work. Based in Koel310, my studio serves as a sanctuary where I find solace in painting every day. My artwork signifies a realm of imagination inhabited by joyful beings, offering a glimpse into the enchanting places of my childhood.
