ARTIST STATEMENT I have created with color since the age of 6. My grandmother read to us after tea every Sunday about the Impressionist Artists. Thus, a seed was planted way ahead for the amazing journey of being an artist. As a landscape artist, I immerse myself in the environment I'm capturing, striving to convey a profound sense of time and place. When working on location, I engage all my senses to truly feel the essence of the surroundings, fostering a deep connection as if I'm an integral part of the scene itself. Rather than actively selecting a subject, I remain receptive, allowing the subject to reveal itself to me organically. It's a matter of attentively observing and being present when that moment of revelation occurs, letting the landscape speak to me through its intricate details, shifting light, and ephemeral moods.
