I create paintings that center around the human experience. My primary inspiration comes from exploring the complex interactions between individuals and the world we inhabit — our relationships with others, with society, and with ourselves. I am continually drawn to examining fundamental concepts such as life, death, faith, and the dynamics of human existence within a societal framework.

Making art is my way of reconciling with what feels inconceivable or unresolved in life. It is both a method of healing and a means of confronting unanswered questions and emotional wounds, whether they stem from personal experiences or the larger world’s events around us. Through the act of creating, I experience a transformation — I become more compassionate, generous, and understanding. I believe this internal change radiates outwards, making the world around me a little better.

Among its many purposes, I see art as a powerful way to leave a lasting impact on the hearts of both the creator and the viewer. It fosters a sense of connection, offering a space where like-minded souls can meet and resonate with one another.
