From an early age, I began to express my inner feelings through line and color on paper.
My first works reflected a deep, intuitive connection between emotion and visual language – I gave form to thoughts, and later, color.
As part of the “Exceptionally Gifted” program, I was accepted at the Hamburg University of Applied Sciences (HAW),
where I studied, among other things, color theory with Prof. Gudenau and deepened my understanding of color and composition.
After graduating, I began to experiment with various painting techniques.
I found my preferred forms of expression particularly in oil and acrylic painting.
My themes revolve around the human being – their depth, their silence – as well as landscapes and horizons that open space for contemplation and vastness.
I combine precise observation with a poetic view of what lies between the lines.
My paintings tell stories – quiet, intense, and full of feeling.
