My paintings invite viewers to connect with the mysterious yet familiar creatures that share our world. These animals experience life through a very different sensory lens than us, yet we find common ground through basic emotions and desires. In them, we recognize something deeply human.

A central question in my work is what to show and what to leave out. Our eyes and minds are capable of filling in gaps, and what’s omitted can often say more than what’s depicted. This selective approach to detail stems from my background in animation, where we always strive to reduce movement into its essence -- to clarify the idea. Although my paintings are far from minimalistic - actually they can be chaotic - I aim to convey mood, movement, and meaning using the least amount of visual information necessary.

Through this balance of realism and abstraction, I seek to create compositions that are visually dynamic yet emotionally grounded. My works echo the complexity of the natural world while inviting personal interpretation. I hope you enjoy my work!
