Reflecting Beauty is a self-portrait about the many sides we all carry within ourselves. Looking into the mirror, the woman sees several reflections, each slightly different. Together they represent the complexity and richness of our inner world and remind us that our identity is never just one thing. We are constantly shaped by our experiences, emotions, and different parts of ourselves. This painting is an invitation to embrace that complexity and to see beauty in every facet of who we are.

I like to create pictures. I love the smell of oil paint; the texture and tension of the canvas; the resistance and softness of the brush; and the color and consistency of the oils. For me, the process of creating an artwork is like a journey to a distant country.
"My artistic vision allows me to express what can’t be articulated with words. The viewer is welcome to connect with my reality, to dive into my world, and to connect with my soul through the emotional context of each artwork."
