I have been painting for over 30 years, always drawn to people, their expressions, movements and the quiet stories hidden in everyday life. Much of my inspiration comes from simply observing the world around me. I often sketch people I encounter on the metro — strangers absorbed in their thoughts, waiting, talking or simply passing through.

My work is instinctive and expressive, guided by color, emotion and observation rather than perfection. Through painting, I try to capture the character and atmosphere of a moment as I experience it. Every painting is a fragment of everyday life, seen through my eyes and transformed into color.
