Biography
A story can be told through someone’s gaze or posture. My paintings depict people, emotions, and perhaps life-changing moments. Inspired by abstract art and street art, I use vibrant colors, rough lines, and dynamic contrasts to exaggerate expressions. Acrylic paint, that dries quickly, allowing me to be bold and free. The process is a collaboration between me and the painting as the strokes and lines come alive before my eyes, sometimes surprising me.
“I want the women I paint to express courage, strength and respect – without hiding their vulnerability. We all have different sides of ourselves.”
”Inspired by abstract art, graffiti and street art I use vibrant colors, rough lines and dynamic contrasts to exaggerate expressions. The soft, sweet and perfect doesn’t interest me.”
“In human bodies and movements, I want to express the unseen, the things happening within us.”
