About me
My story
As an artist, my journey has been shaped by both resilience and transformation. My path began in the world of hardship, where art served as a refuge, a means of expression, and a source of strength.
I view the world through a lens shaped by years of diverse experiences—ranging from my early years working to support my family to my lengthy career in the legal field, which honed my attention to both the big picture and intricate details. This journey has had a profound impact on my artistic process, giving me a multifaceted perspective that informs my work.
I spent years developing my technique, drawing from my studies under Mykola Tarpan and Gabbie Hirsch. Their guidance has influenced my approach to composition and form, but I also challenge myself to step beyond tradition, seeking to create works that stand on their own and resonate with modern sensibilities.
My paintings are not just representations of what I see but are reflections of my emotional landscape, capturing the subtleties of both nature and the human experience.

Work process
Nature has always been my muse. Through painting, I seek to connect with the natural world and express the underlying emotions and truths that nature evokes within me. The process is intuitive, allowing me to follow the natural flow of the medium while maintaining a constant dialogue with the subject matter. For me, the act of creating is not only about representation but also about capturing the essence of fleeting moments. The transience of the natural world is a central theme in my work.
Just as nature is in constant flux, so too are the emotions and perspectives that shape our experiences. I embrace the spontaneity that comes with using acrylics, a medium that allows for fast changes, enabling me to respond instinctively to the evolution of the painting. Through this, I can mirror the ever-changing landscape of both the natural world and the inner workings of the human spirit. The process of creating these works is often meditative, requiring me to immerse myself fully in each piece. I approach every canvas with both mindfulness and curiosity, seeking to translate my emotional response to nature into colors and forms that resonate with the viewer.
I am constantly evolving, as both an artist and a person. My work today is a continuation of the journey I began long ago—one that asks questions, provokes thought, and encourages reflection. Through every piece, I aim to share a part of my own story, as well as offer viewers the opportunity to enter a world where color and form come together to evoke deeper meanings.
My art is a window into my inner world, a space where vulnerability and creativity intertwined. It is my hope that each painting invites viewers to step outside their reality and into a world where nature and emotion coexist in perfect harmony. Art, for me, is not just an act of creation — it is a conversation between the self and the world, one that I continue to explore with each new canvas.
