I have been drawing since childhood and I know and love to do a lot with my hands, so I went back to my roots and started creating beautiful paintings, putting all my soul and experience into them. I developed a real passion for abstract art and Fluid Art, and this is now the main focus of my work.

With my art I want to draw people's attention to the importance of not losing oneself in the flow of vanity. I want to inspire people to find their authenticity, and to find a sense of happiness in their lives through the harmonization of their inner state and outer manifestation.

In my works I explore how a person can find his or her true self, free himself or herself from imposed templates, understand and accept his or her real self, whether it is possible in principle or whether this search will never end.
People often live on automatic, do everything by inertia, home, work, hustle and bustle and everyday life take away all the time. And at some point a person may begin to realize a certain disharmony in life. He feels a discrepancy between his inner feeling and his outer manifestation. He notices that he doesn't have enough time to think about himself and his life. Am I going where I am going, what am I striving for, what do I want?
During the course of a person's life, unwanted foreign influences, opinions and stereotypes can unconsciously "stick" to him.


And at a certain point we can revisit them and make a conscious choice: what is mine and what is someone else's. Perhaps some of our beliefs are actually templates, limiting frameworks that prevent a person from manifesting and being himself.
And only by realizing your true desires, you can gradually move towards finding harmony between the inner and outer. To find the feeling that you are in your place, exactly where you need to be, and that you are satisfied with your life and what happens to you.
Through my work, I want to draw people's attention to how IMPORTANT it is not to lose yourself in the flow of hustle and bustle.
I aim to inspire people to find their authenticity.

With each new piece I share a little part of myself and I look forward to the day it makes an honest, emotional connection with another. In feel in my place, really happy, working with abstract forms, and here I can live out all my creative fantasies and ideas. so...if you like, you can have a piece of this happiness in your own home .
