Artist Statement:
"I remember myself holding a pencil and drawing since I was a child.
Drawing whatever triggered my wild imagination.
Years went by and my pencil became a brush, a charcoal, a pen. The paper turned to a canvas and painting became a self-discovery journey.
I relied on colours to express my feelings, my thoughts, my experiences. My pencil was my closest ally, always there to speak for me when the words couldn't.
Faces, scenes from photos, a song I love, a place I visited, an old dusty book, vintage items, through my pop-art interpretation.
My inspiration is hidden and found everywhere in life. My technique can cover mixed media from acrylic, ink, oil, collage among others.
Every inspiration is a new journey. Every journey is a new challenge; a challenge I am always willing to take up.
Many artworks of mine are in private collections all around the world.
Published and featured with interviews for several times at 'Let's explore Magazine', 'Artquench Magazine', 'Scaffolding Magazine' and 'Artospective'.
Currently represented by Eclectic Gallery in London , 140 Portobello Road."
