SHADOW SPIRAL

I was keen to capture the dynamic energy of the spirals through bold acrylic brushstrokes. The interplay of black and gold creates a mesmerising dance of light and shadow, reflecting the complex twists and turns of life. Each swirl is a passion, a story that runs deeper into the painting, evoking emotions of curiosity and wonder. Displaying this piece at home will bring a vibrant, expressive pulse to any space, enriching it with a story of visual movement and contrast.

GOLDEN CIPHER       

In this piece, I channeled the enigmatic beauty of whispers and shadows, using acrylic to capture the delicate dance between light and dark. The swirling forms and sharp lines emerge from a golden-hued fade, symbolizing the ever-present yet often unseen rhythms of nature and thought. This artwork is meant to bring a sense of intrigue and a whisper of untold stories to any space it inhabits, encouraging viewers to pause and ponder the deeper connections in their surroundings.

GLADE OF BLUE FLOWERS

The summer play of colors in flower meadows always pleases the eye and lifts your spirits.

I never tire of depicting these flowery places. Small and large, morning and evening, summer and spring. They give me a lot of positive energy, some of which I am happy to leave on the canvases along with my magical paints.

THE SMILE OF ECUADOR

A smiling woman wearing a textured straw hat and beaded earrings is vibrantly depicted against a backdrop filled with warm, radiant hues and dynamic square patterns. Her expression exudes joy, and the strong brushstrokes add an energetic feel to the portrayal, reflecting a moment of happiness or laughter.

Four months have passed since I moved to the amazing country of Ecuador. From the first day of my stay in this country, I have never ceased to be amazed at the friendliness and smiling nature of its inhabitants. I loved you, Ecuador!

GREEN HILLS

In creating this work, I immersed myself in the rhythms of nature, blending abstract and expressionist styles to evoke the rolling vitality of the green hills. Each bold, fluid line and layered clash of colors not only represents the natural undulating movements of the earth, but the emotional fluctuations of life itself. My use of vibrant acrylic paints brings out a luminous quality that energizes any space, filling it with a spirit of renewal and dynamic beauty. This artwork is a celebration of nature’s endless dance, inviting viewers to resonate with its deep, vital pulse. Green waves flow like rivers of life through dark valleys and bright peaks. The land breathes emerald hues that bring the promise of spring and renewal. Tiny cottages hide in its curves, cozy islands in an endless ocean of green. A sudden splash of red disrupts the peace, a burst of energy in the silence. Black lines create depth and rhythm. It's the feeling of a fresh breeze before a summer thunderstorm, the whisper of leaves dancing in the air.

HOT HILLS

 This land is alive with fire, burning not with destruction but with passion and life. The red waves move like lava, cutting through the deep black of the earth. There is warmth here, the kind that lingers in the air before nightfall. The little houses, tucked into the landscape, hold onto their light, their windows glowing like embers. A single green patch breaks the rhythm, a promise that nature never rests. The contrast of heat and shadow, movement and stillness, makes this piece a landscape of emotion.

THREE VOICES

In this oil painting, I've captured the soulful essence of three distinct guitars, each telling its own story of musical journeys and the emotions they evoke. Three electric guitars are depicted against a soft, muted background, showcasing various wood finishes and designs. Each guitar has a distinct shape and color, highlighting their unique characteristics. Through meticulous brushstrokes and a harmonious palette, I convey not just an image, but a symphony of memories and melodies that resonate with every viewer. This piece celebrates the universal language of music, inviting a vibrant and passionate energy into any home.

SPRING FLOWERING

As the artist, I see this painting as an explosion of joy in nature's garden. The vibrant yellows and oranges dance against the lively green backdrop, creating a dynamic rhythm of movement and life. Every brushstroke celebrates the wild and untamed beauty of a blooming meadow, where chaos turns into harmony. The intertwining stems and delicate flowers invite the viewer to get lost in their natural flow. A vibrant display of swirling floral patterns bursts with dynamic colors, including bright yellows, deep reds, and rich greens. The energetic composition evokes the lively movement of plants in a breezy garden. The colors don't just sit on the canvas—they leap out and fill the air with energy. This is my tribute to the spontaneity and spirit of nature, captured in a moment of bold expression. It's not just a painting—it's a slice of a sunlit day, full of life and promise.

FROZEN FLAM

In creating this work, I immersed myself in the interplay of texture and color, combining acrylic, oil and plaster to convey a storm of emotion. The swirls and dynamic textures convey a sense of movement, while the cool blue tones intertwined with golden flashes evoke a fiery spirit trapped in the ice.  The texture suggests an abstract and dynamic composition, reminiscent of natural elements. This work narrates a beautiful struggle between tranquility and turbulence, aiming to induce a state of reflection in viewers and energize any space with its intense emotional depth.

FROZEN SYMPHONY

In this creation, I sought to capture the tumultuous elegance of a winter storm. Using acrylic, oil, and plaster, I sculpted textures and swirls, mimicking the fierce dance of wind and snow. The dominant blues and whites convey both the cold's bite and the beauty of its serene, frosty embrace. Swirling patterns of blues and whites create a dynamic, fluid motion, reminiscent of flowing water or wind. Intricate swirls and lines add depth and movement to the composition. This piece invites the viewer to feel the invigorating chill of nature's power, adding a dynamic, spirited energy to any space it occupies.

GENTLE FLOW

In creating this piece, I wanted to capture the fluidity and calming essence of ocean waves blending with the wind. An abstract design features swirling, textured patterns with a mix of soft beige, blue, and green tones. Curving lines and circular elements create a sense of flow and movement, adding depth to the composition. Using oil on plaster allowed me to create textured swirls and dynamic spirals that bring the abstract sea to life. The gentle palette of creams, blues, and hints of earth tones evoke a serene yet energizing atmosphere. This artwork is intended to convey peace and stir the soul, making it a perfect addition to any space seeking a touch of tranquility and inspiration.

SUN OF ECUADOR   

In this vibrant oil painting, I've melded the distinctive clarity of fine art with the bold, exuberant touches of pop art. Inspired by the myriad hues and textures of nature, I crafted a lush, blooming landscape bathed in the radiance of a resplendent sun. Vibrant flowers in a variety of colors fill the foreground, with rolling hills and distant mountains under a radiant sun. The landscape is rich with lush greenery and bright blooms, creating a vivid and lively scene. This piece celebrates life’s vividness and endless possibilities, intending to suffuse any space with warmth, hope, and a splash of whimsical color.

THE FLOW OF CELESTIAL WHISPERS

I’ve always been intrigued by the idea of conveying silence. In this piece, I aimed to express the sound that doesn’t exist—the whisper of the wind when the sky seems to be speaking to itself. I used smooth, flowing lines to show how clouds, almost imperceptibly, glide across the horizon. This painting is about the inner world, about what each of us sometimes hears when we listen closely to ourselves. May the viewer find their own stories in these lines and discover the silence that can be louder than any words.
