Selection from 2015 to 2025
I started to create regularly these intuitive drawings as a form of meditation and therapy to help with the suffering I was experiencing due to an autoimmune illness.
During the process, I let my perfectionism sleep and allow intuition to take control over my hand. I find myself more in the ‘flow state’ of creation rather than thinking rationally about how the final result must look. It is very liberating for a figurative artist to include this kind of technique in the creation process.
This body of work has been evolving from pure flowing lines and shapes in pencils and ink to more narrative images with the incorporation of characters and explorations with both traditional and digital painting.

I’m representing the flow state, according to how it feels to me, from my experience these years in my life. That creative energy that I believe is all around us, channeling through the body in those moments of concentration, bringing inspiration, clarity and peace.

The Golden Dragon is a mythical creature that has been the subject of many legends and stories throughout history. This legendary beast is said to possess incredible power and wealth, making it a highly coveted symbol in mythology and art. This creature is a conduit for magic and transformation and this painting is an invitation to embrace our inner power, to surrender to the hypnotic pull of creativity, and to let our imagination take flight on the wings of the golden dragon.

These artworks speak to the profound interconnectedness of all things in the universe.
I'm trying to remind us all of the beauty and fragility of our world and the responsibility we hold to protect and preserve it.
