| bio: |
In 2009, I decided to leave my graphic design business to focus on oil painting and illustration. People and faces are my favorite subjects. Drifting between realism and surrealism, I love recreating vintage America, re-imagining the lives and stories of the characters on my canvas or just exploring the emotional color of faces in the crowd. |

the importance of art: |
For
me, art is an important vehicle for communication. Capturing
in art visions that are beyond the capacity of words
can be life-affirming. It can stimulate viewers' emotions
and allow them to explore and acknowledge unspoken feelings
in a safe and healthy manner.
