"Axis mundi" or "World tree" Painting

I am an artist inspired by the solitude and spiritual connection found in nature. My oil paintings use bold, expressive brushstrokes to capture the raw emotions that nature evokes, with a focus on themes of isolation and self-reflection. One of my key works, Waves, reflects the tension between chaos and calm, inspired by the unpredictable beauty of the ocean. Much of my practice is influenced by shamanic culture, explored in my Shaman Series, and my Nature Series, starting with Desert, reflects my fascination with barren landscapes and self-discovery. Based in Azerbaijan, I continue to draw inspiration from the tranquility of nature, which shapes my evolving work.
