Summary

As a skilled painter and textile designer, I combine deep technical knowledge with a refined aesthetic sense to create compelling and successful designs. My artistic journey, which began in childhood, has led me to explore various expressive techniques and experiment with different canvas sizes. I completed my master’s thesis in 2023, "The Destructive Power of Diseases Illustrated by Expressive Means of Expression," with high distinction. My work spans both large and small formats, where I embrace experimentation and remain open to new ideas. Additionally, I excel in collaborating with customers, marketing, and production teams, balancing my creative vision with practical execution to deliver outstanding results.

Art inspiration

I have diverse sources of inspiration: they come from both everyday life and deeper reflections on human existence. One of the key elements is observing nature and the environment around me. Nature provides me with constantly changing patterns, shapes and colors that I reflect in my paintings. My works contain abstract elements that allow viewers to freely interpret and discover their own meanings. I often experiment with techniques and mediums, trying to express the diversity and richness of human feelings and experiences. I am fascinated by the combination of abstraction and expression, which allows me to express deeper emotions and thoughts through shapes, colors and textures. My work is also strongly rooted in my personal life and experiences. Experiences, interpersonal relationships and reflections on the human psyche are a source of inspiration for me to create works that move the viewer and stimulate their imagination. During my studies in Malta and during my stay at international art plein-air workshops in Romania, I gained new perspectives and experiences that strongly influenced my work. Contact with different cultures and artistic environments broadened my horizons and became a source of inspiration to experiment with new techniques and perception of reality. In my work, it is important for me to strive to get to know myself and express my identity. It is a process that has accompanied me throughout my life, and which I see as a constant journey through the world of art and self-awareness.

Technique

In my artistic work I explore various techniques and media. I most often use acrylic paints, ink, sand, fabric, pastels, charcoal and string. However, I am not afraid to experiment and discover new ways of expression. I often create unconventional textures in my works, achieving bold, original effects. I also dealt with graphics.

Noteaboutpainting

As an artist, I am deeply immersed in the process of creation, using various means of expression to convey my thoughts, emotions and reflections. My painting journey began in childhood and since then I have been developing my skills, constantly experimenting and striving to discover new ways of expression. In 2023, I defended my master's thesis entitled "The destructive power of diseases illustrated by expressive means of expression" with a very good grade. My work focuses on large formats, where color spots, rhythm and expression play a key role. I like to surrender to the process of creation to allow thoughts and feelings to freely flow onto the canvas.
