Fly bird to my love Painting

I've always been fascinated by illustration and its ability to merge visuals with storytelling. Over the years, I have explored ways to combine images and text, experimenting with oil painting to develop a style that unifies both mediums. My cross-cultural interests have greatly inspired my practice. I draw from Latin American retablo, a tradition rooted in Spanish religious painting, later transformed into a popular art form addressing everyday experiences of gratitude, healing, and protection. I found this form particularly meaningful for expressing my own observations, anxieties, and moments of joy. Another distinctive element in my work is the integration of text. I’ve created a unique typographic style inspired by skoropys, an 18th-century Ukrainian calligraphic tradition. Combining this script with my visual narratives allows me to transform personal stories into universal messages. Combining cultural traditions and personal experience, I aim to create art that resonates emotionally and inspires viewers to contemplate.
