My biggest muse is Mother Nature – different every time: it can be delicate, or rough; bright and lushful; or neutral and quiet. Just like a woman; just like me. I find an endless inspiration in all the states of the Nature; they mirror my states of mind. Whether it’s integrated in an urban setting, or wild flora behind my backyard; I try to portrait the Nature’s character in every landscape I paint; and I strongly believe that it resonates with people’s characters and every person can find a “soulmate painting”. My focus has been on exploring the full potential of acrylic paints; they help me to capture the colors and to show the mood. I truly believe that art is energy and it’s the artists’ duty to bring the raw emotion and energy to the spectator.
