I’ve been drawn to art for as long as I can remember. It’s the only language that has ever truly felt like mine.

I love creating art that captures the deepest corners of human feeling and blends a surreal touch with the reality we all share. For years, I searched for a way to draw from my dreams, emotions, and imagination while still building a world that feels ... real. That journey led me to teach myself photography, photo editing, and above all, a detailed, realistic drawing technique; so I can immerse the viewer in my world as naturally and seamlessly as possible.
Where do you find inspiration?Inner experiences, social issues, dreams and intrusive thoughts I never seek out, yet they find me in the most unexpected moments.
What would you do with $25,000?These funds will help me grow as an artist and invest in improving the quality of my work. I also plan to create a project where my drawings are sold through auctions and raffles, with all proceeds going to animal shelters and underprivileged children. I would also like to involve other artists in this initiative. In addition, a portion of the funds would go toward my home, where is my small studio.
