Her journey in painting oil portraits is entirely self-taught, and her artistic interests encompass a wide array of subjects, from captivating portraits to the serene beauty of still life. Rather than adhering to a specific painting style, her artistic vision centers on capturing the world as realistically as possible, ensuring that every brushstroke echoes her authentic observations.
Her favored artistic mediums include acrylics and oils, although she also dabbles in watercolors and pastels. However, it’s the art of painting portraits, especially of children, that holds a special place in her creative heart. Her artistic drive stems from an unwavering and undeniable compulsion to paint, an inner need that fuels her artistic journey. Her motto is, “Never say I can’t paint that!”
