Who am I?

I am a self-taught artist who embarked on a creative path, nurturing my passion for painting over time. It was in 2016 when fate brought me together with my husband, an artist himself, who became a driving force behind my artistic growth. With his unwavering support and guidance, I gained invaluable encouragement and confidence in my paintings. His belief in my abilities pushed me beyond my comfort zone, constantly urging me to challenge myself. Thanks to his presence and influence, I found the courage to showcase my artwork in exhibitions, something I wouldn't have imagined doing on my own. His steadfast support has been instrumental in helping me evolve as an artist, continually pushing me to surpass my own limits and explore new artistic horizons. I am immensely grateful to my loving partner for his patience, unwavering support, and constant presence during both the ups and downs of my artistic journey.

Thank you, my love, for always being by my side.
