    In Focus: Horizons No. 3

    One of the first ones of the series. As of 2025 Horizons is my current artistic evolution ever since I started exploring landscapes, which I was doing in an indirect way. My compositions usually had landscapes backstage behind people and portraits. When I decided to omit figures, landscapes took over the main role and started to evolve.

    Horizons explores imagined, fantastical scenes. In this body of work, I challenge reality, questioning the hows and whys using art as a means of escape from everyday life. Horizons is one of my longest-running series to date, and it continues to evolve with each new piece.

    In Focus: Searching for Mushrooms No. 4

    This series is about our relentless search for something in our lives, whether tangible or not. Although the painting is very literal with this woman reaching for a mushroom in rather an uncomfortable position, it is metaphorically describing deeper meaning. It could well be us looking for answers to life’s deepest questions.
