Once Upon a Time in a Land Far Away" is a delicate watercolor painting capturing a poignant moment in time before the upheaval of war and my family's journey to Canada. In this light, high-key composition, my mother's face gently fades into a soft, ethereal background, symbolizing a time of innocence and peace. The subtle blending of colors creates a dreamlike quality, evoking the nostalgia of a distant past and the beauty of a life before a significant change.

My work grows out of memory and lived experience. I let the unpredictable side of life (its disruptions, coincidences, and contradictions) become part of the painting process. By balancing chaos with form, I look for the underlying patterns that run through both my own story and the world we share.
"I paint in the space between chaos and structure, trying to uncover what lies beneath the surface of the self."
