About me

I am a figurative painter based between Germany and France. I am a self-taught artist who has been drawing and painting since childhood. My early work began with traditional drawing and oil painting, evolving over time to focus primarily on acrylics.

I have developed a distinctive style by shifting from brushwork to palette knives, creating vibrant compositions that invite viewers to engage and interpret the movement and emotion within each piece.My work mainly explores cityscapes, scenes of everyday life and expressive portraits.

Some highlights of my journey include winning 1st prize at the Stuttgart Exhibition and being selected for the Hahnemühle Calendar 2023 and 2026, a major international competition.My work is exhibited regularly in France and Germany and has been featured in art magazines.

My artistic practice is driven by continuous exploration and a desire to translate lived moments into expressive, contemporary figurative paintings.

Artist statement

My work explores the emotional power of color and the richness of everyday life across cultures. Drawing inspiration from global experiences and travel, I create expressive figurative paintings — including cityscapes, scenes of life and portraits — alongside more abstract explorations of movement and emotion.

Each piece is an invitation to see the familiar through a new lens—imbued with optimism, curiosity, and a deep appreciation for cultural beauty. Through my art, I aim to spark dialogue, evoke emotion, and offer viewers a sense of discovery rooted in both personal and collective experience.
