HOME IS WHERE THE ART IS

Art washes away from the soul the dust of everyday life.” ― Pablo Picasso

A few examples of previous artworks.

As an experienced artist, I have captured the beauty of landscapes and cityscapes across Europe through my paintings. My work showcases the unique architecture and rich culture found in various countries, including UK, Italy, and Spain. I am always inspired by the diverse and captivating scenery that this continent has to offer.

The art of graphite.

I thoroughly enjoy working with pencils, especially when I can focus on creating intricate details. My drawings can often take over 60 hours to complete, but with the right music playing, I am truly in my happy place.

In addition to pencil or graphite commissions, I offer incredibly detailed watercolor paintings as well. If you’re interested, please take a moment to read through my commission information. My goal is to help you realize your vision and create something you will truly love.
