As long as I can remember I’ve loved art. I grew up in communist Bucharest, Romania, in a household full of books and art, and after the 1989 revolution my parents enrolled me into a local art school aged 8, where I studied two days a week fine art throughout high school, eventually graduating with a Bacalaureat degree in Sculpture and later a BA(hons) in Metal Sculpture.

Over the last two decades I’ve worked as an artist, graphic designer, video editor, art teacher and more, trying my hands at anything creative. 5 years ago Ive decided to make art my full time job and income and I have been on this path ever since, still multitasking along the way.

I am now interested in all aspects of art, though my first love is portraiture and unravelling peoples stories. I like to use symbolism to create unique individual pockets of someone's world, though invariably it ends up reflecting my own inner world and unearthing artistic landscapes I didnt know I was inhibiting already.

My style morphs and changes with the subjects I choose, whether is figurative or depicting ideas and feelings. I don’t believe in having one style to define you as an artist and I very much welcome the surprise part of this journey, whilst being allowed to grow in ...
