Painting

I have been captivated and drawn to the arts my entire life, through painting, piano or writing poetry. For different and challenging reasons, I remained an autodidact painter.
I fell in love with oils around December of 2019. This experience was so dramatic that I had to take painting seriously; it profoundly changed my path.
This media has helped me find my voice creating a language of colors that certainly invites an audience to engage in a conversation.
I am interested in creating, through layers, artwork that displays sensitivity and contains substance.
I need to express emotions and capture the essence of still life and landscapes, intimate encounters with the new experiences of the process of creating.
I keep on exploring techniques and colors, staying true to myself in my need to communicate through my art.
I have presented my paintings in several exhibits and juried shows in my area as well as at International Art competitions, earning awards.
Currently, I am trying to paint in diverse translucent layers to create my own technique in a faithful fashion from my home studio in South Florida.
