Since I started to paint - it changed my life. To paint the figures is to paint ourselves. Figurative painting has long been used as mode of human reflection and the expression of our feelings. I'm interested in people's goals, struggles and triumphs, as well as understanding what makes them unique. My work is driven by stories .Once I had my story I worked on building a rhythm by adding, removing or re-positioning the colors and other elements to better serve the narrative. My paintings depict real objects in the realm of the imagination. I try to create sensations of light, colors, fabrics, mood of characters.
