Inspiration doesn’t just come from what we see—it’s about what we feel, what lingers in our memory, and how we translate that essence onto the canvas. My work exists in the space between abstraction and landscape, a style I’ve come to define as textural expressionism—where movement, depth, and layers of emotion shape the composition more than strict form.


This painting, Boundless, wasn’t about recreating a scene but capturing the essence of a moment—standing in Zermatt, watching the clouds shift and dissolve into the vast landscape, feeling both small and limitless at once. The earth’s rugged strength and the ethereal lightness of the sky became textures and colors rather than forms, evolving over months of layering, reflecting, and rediscovering the surface.



Using a mix of mediums, I build my paintings gradually, layering textures like sediment, stepping back often to reevaluate, allowing the composition to shift and take shape over time. Each piece is a journey, and as a self-taught artist, every brushstroke, every new technique, is a lesson. Boundless holds that exploration within it — an interplay of seen and unseen, built slowly, shaped intuitively, and always revealing something unexpected along the way.
