BIOGRAPHY
I have been drawing and painting for as long as I can remember. When I was young I would always draw women in fashionable clothing, which is still one of the characteristic features in my works. Later on, it was my fascination for different cultures and people that led me to go study cultures of Latin America where I got introduced to the different aspects of cultures in art, literature, language and more. I complemented my studies with different courses with art collectives from the Art Academy. My artworks are an ode to women. My works are figurative and show women in powerful movements or positions dressed in different cultural displays from Western fashion to ancient African attire. In my large contemporary artworks I emphasize women’s characteristic features such as their shapes, feminine forms and looks.

STATEMENT
My artworks are an ode to feminine beauty. I love to tell a story with my artworks and give them a deeper meaning. Often I leave the interpretation of that meaning up to the spectator. As Bucchianeri once said: The true meaning of art is always in the eye of the beholder..
