In a hectic and overcrowded world, our actions are often impulsive and unreflective. In my art, I immerse myself in the world of icons from the past and present. I explore their personalities and values, seeking the lessons we can learn from them and the inspiration they offer us.
My portrayal of icons manifests itself in vivid portraits, infused with strength and sensuality. I am fascinated by how stories can be told through facial expression and body language, and by the power they have to move us deeply.
In my artistic practice, I combine a wide range of techniques, including brush painting, drawing, airbrushing, and printmaking. I value the traditional, craft-based aspect of painting while always keeping my gaze directed toward the future. My goal is to grow and mature both as an artist and as a human being by continuously exploring and learning new techniques.
Each of my works is an experiment in which I combine familiar elements with new methods to enrich my art and give it greater expressive power—also through the use of digital tools. Ultimately, my wish is to convey a message through my art: the wisdom, values, and strength of our icons can encourage us to move forward into the future.

Biography
From a very young age, I spent countless hours by the side of my talented mother, mesmerized by the lines taking shape beneath her pencil. Those early moments awakened a lifelong love for portrait art—people and their stories have been reflected in every brushstroke of mine ever since.
After completing my studies, my path led me for many years into the world of advertising. Working as a graphic designer shaped my sense of composition, color, and visual communication. At the same time, free drawing remained the heart of my creative practice—a constant source of joy and growth.
Returning to art as my main focus felt like a natural step: a conscious decision to bring together all the experience I had gathered and invest it fully in developing my own visual language. Since then, my audience has grown rapidly, thanks in large part to the reach of digital platforms.
Today, my prints and original works find their way into collections around the world. I am represented in various online shops, am planning my first gallery collaborations, and look forward to sharing my work more frequently in exhibition spaces alongside others. Every new commission and every encounter reaffirms my belief that art builds bridges—between people, cultures, and moments.
