Statement about my work/ La déclaration de mon travail
I am an U.K. artist, living and working in NW England. Born and educated in Bucharest the capital of Romania.
I am trying to express myself in my own energetic and spontaneous style using a variety of media and techniques.
It could be more or less simplified, depends how I feel about the subject.
My works are paintings and drawings of female nudes, couples in love and portraits.
Sensual, delicate and emotional posture of female nudes or couples, they are subjects just coming out of my mind or they are inspired by images I see every day.
Expressive composition and harmonious colours are the basic of my work. My paintings are usually bold, colourful and heavy textured. I use the palette knife more often than the brushes.
I like to work with charcoal in my drawings, feeling free to play with lines, shapes and tonalities.
is a sort of process of modelling with lines.
Once I start working I am out of this world and embarked in a creative process that I never know when and how it ends.
I create my works to carry the message of artistic beauty, harmony and happiness.
Over the years, I took part in several solo and group exhibitions in Romania and NW England.
At present I sell my works mainly on line building a good reputation about my high standard of professionalism.
More and more art lovers enjoy to view and buy art online from the comfort of their home.
When thinking about buying art, I would suggest: "Buy what YOU really like!".
My works are collectible, highly regarded and can be found worldwide in private collections.

They're beautiful nudes, full of body expression, beautiful textures, grace and life; I don't see why they're “safe search”. In art history, there have always been drawings and paintings of male and female nudes, and the human body is beautiful...!
Good luck and all the best to you, Carmen :-)
