“While many seek peace in noise and motion, I meet myself in front of a blank canvas.” Painting, for me, is not about performance. It is a silent act of honesty. Every work I create begins not with an idea, but with presence — with the decision to stop running from myself. In that stillness, thoughts surface. Doubt appears. But also — fragments of something real, something worth shaping. My art is not loud. It does not ask for attention. It is built in the space between chaos and form — in the pause where the hand continues even when the mind doesn't know why. If you sense something while looking at my work — a quiet echo, a pause, a recognition — then we’ve met beyond words. In the silence of the canvas, I don't escape the world. I return to it — one brushstroke at a time. Because artists cannot run. The brush won’t let them. The canvas sees everything. Silence does not forgive. But that’s why, when someone looks at a painting and feels something — it’s not about beauty. It’s about respect. For the one who had the courage to stand exposed in front of the canvas.
