As a child, I was mesmerized by my uncle as he sketched birds, donkeys, and horses. Watching him create something from nothing gave me a wonderful feeling, and that wonder has stayed with me. To this day, what drives me to paint is the sheer joy of creating—turning a blank canvas into a vivid scene, a figure, or an illusion of reality using just paint and brushes.

My journey started with acrylics, but over the years, oil paint won me over. Its versatility, forgiving nature, and the rich textures it creates were irresistible. I love seeing every brushstroke in my work, so I use bristle brushes, minimal medium, and bold colors—orange being my favorite now for its warmth and radiance.

Every painting begins with a red-stained canvas and large, bold shapes blocked in complementary colors. From there, I sketch the details and layer texture, working from dark to light until the piece feels complete. This process gives me pure joy, as each painting evolves and takes on a life of its own.

Right now, my work is bright, bold, and full of color. I’m continually amazed by the power of color to transform a painting and evoke emotion. Every time I step back and see a finished piece, I’m filled with a profound sense of excitement and fulfillment.

Above all, I find endless inspiration in the Creator, the ultimate artist who shaped the beauty we see every day.
