CREATIVE STATEMENT
My love for painting began in my childhood, experimenting with different mediums in my grandmother's art studio. While I've explored many techniques—from various paints to pastles and even wax—watercolours have always been my favourite, especially for capturing flowers and more recently, animals in natural scenes. Over the years, I've mastered both traditional and digital painting techniques using my iPad and computer. As both a wildlife illustrator and surface pattern designer, I enjoy combining my love for photography with a keen eye for detail, capturing the essence of each subject through careful observation and natural colour palettes, always considering perspective and balance to create striking, harmonious illustrations.
