My art journey began at a young age, inspired by the works of great masters in art. My early work, rooted in still life and dynamic forms of figurative drawings, was marked by meticulous attention to detail and a strive for perfection. However, during a transformational phase in my life, I found inspiration to delve into abstract painting, an exploration that opened up a world of immense joy and freedom I had never experienced before in art. From that moment, there was no turning back. I had entered a realm where every hue offered limitless possibilities.

My abstract creations are deeply expressive, allowing me to explore unknown spaces of my mind. I learned to cherish this beauty in imperfection and incompleteness, discovering profound depth in the spontaneous forms that emerged from my creations. In this realm, I was fearless, fully embracing the colors and outcomes, solely engrossed in the process of creating.

"Meraki," a journey into introspective abstraction, is more than just a display of art; it’s an invitation for viewers to connect, engage, and immerse themselves in this visual experience. I embody the spirit of Meraki, which has become my guiding force, steering me towards uncharted territories of self-expression and discovery.
