The first thing you should know about me is that I don't know what I am doing. I have no credentials or qualifications to be an artist. I simply love painting.
I just started getting really serious about painting last year, in 2025, and now I am creating the kind of paintings that I secretly wanted to create when I was still a teenager – bright, dynamic, and striking. My only goal in painting is to create works of staggering beauty, which as you know come few and far between. But this daunting journey keeps me content and alive, so I embrace it fully.
Now I paint every day, 365 days a year, and I play with light and shadow, transparency, texture and chance. I never know what will happen in any of my paintings, and this keeps me curious and excited. All my work is on Instagram, so feel free to check out my paintings there.
