ARTISTS CURRICULUM VITAE
ARTISTS STATEMENT
I paint in oils and watercolour and i especially enjoy the materiality of paint. I usually work on board or paper. I love to draw in charcoal, pencil and pen. I sometimes use textiles and photography as a medium when exploring a theme. Nature has always been an inspiration along with memories and dreams." - 2022
