When does looking shift from a passive glance to an intentional act of love? This question drives my artistic practice, which is rooted in attentive observation of the natural world—where hints of something beyond our ordinary perception seem to appear. Though self-portraiture is a recurring motif, my works delve into the universal experience of losing oneself in a natural landscape. The imagined colors within realistic scenes nod to the magical quality of these moments. Through my paintings, I hope to inspire pause and introspection, acknowledging the innate beauty within and around us. Serving as a bridge between the tangible and the ethereal, my art invites viewers to connect with their surroundings and to engage in extraordinary moments of love that might otherwise slip by unnoticed.
