Art is a silent poetry.
A philosophy that underpins my creative journey. I paint for the therapeutic essence it brings, finding healing and emotional balance amidst the vibrant interplay of colors and forms. Art, for me, is a medicine that soothes the soul, especially during challenging times.
For the past 12 years, I've called Singapore my home, following 14 dynamic years in New York City. My dedication to painting has grown significantly over the last three years, transforming a long-time hobby into a passionate pursuit. My work predominantly features trees, flowers, landscapes, and abstract themes, expressed through acrylic, oil, and spray paint. Trees, in particular, resonate deeply with me; they are silent sentinels of our planet, and my art strives to spread the urgent message of their preservation.
My artistic skills have developed organically, shaped by practice and the rich cultural experiences gained from living in Paris, New York, Singapore, and Turkey. Visits to museums and art galleries across these cities have been instrumental in my growth, each contributing to the 200-plus paintings I've created in recent years.
Thank you for your support.
