I started this year with a dancing, skating and floating session back in time, in 1994, when I used to go with my cousin at the ice rink situated at the foot of Tâmpa Mountain in my beloved hometown, Brasov. I painted a perfect evening from my childhood. The ice rink was placed in the most beautiful spot of the most beautiful town in the world for me at that time. Surrounded by nature, with a wonderful view over the city on one side, and the mountain on the other, we were practically breathing the trees above us. And my happiness came from that simple thing, of being there, floating on ice, listening to "Hey yo, Captain Jack" :) and observing the typologies of people always present on any ice rink : the artistic skater that skates fast and does figures :) , the one that you have the impression that will fall at any moment, the child that learned a few tricks and is proudly showing them to his parents, the group of kids playing run and catch ( that you are secretly afraid of, because they might unbalance you ), the romantic duo that skates in tandem, the parent who breakes his back trying to teach his child to skate.

Born in the fairytale city of Brașov, I spent my childhood in a big house where I lived with the whole family on my father's side: parents, grandparents, aunts, uncles and cousins, dogs, cats and chickens :). Recently I have come to the conclusion that it was my grandfather who influenced me the most in my life. He was a sports teacher and taught me how to ride a bike, play tennis, billiards, chess and other board games ( using beans as game pieces ) and used to tell us a lot of fantasy stories. He loved to paint and I`m sure I also got this from him! I have a travel and tourism degree, I love tennis, chess, biking, reading and I have always had art-related hobbies : I love photography and people say I have a good eye for it, I have always painted my clothes, bags, shoes, even skis, I’ve been collecting coins since childhood for their beauty, for their esthetic value and geographical characteristics, I have hairstyling skills and fashion sense. I have started to paint more actively around 2017, and in 2018 I have started a small business by hand-painting vintage bags when: BANG!!! I rediscovered myself, it was like my alter ego suddenly came out; I could not think of anything else but painting, I could not stop imagining the process and the way it made me feel, I was like hypnotised and I knew I wanted to do this for the rest of my life! I started painting a lot in a variety of mediums, learning and reading a lot about it and after a while I started taking art courses at Magda Vacariu Art School, which were interrupted by the pandemic, but the learning continued, as I am a devoted autodidact and the curiosity, desire and huge love for painting motivated me. When I paint I am complete and I have that authentic feeling of inner peace!
