Art and Illustrations

What I love most about art is that you can always discover new materials or techniques. Instead of going by the book and leading an already known path, I like to try and find how “I” communicate with the paint and brush and how “they” respond. 

It is definitely my favourite medium. I produce most of my art with watercolors. I sometimes sell the original, sometimes digitalise the work and produce prints. I also work with commission, as reproductions or original patterns.

A good fountain pen and live sketching skills are an architect’s best friend. For me, they are more than just tools; I prefer to take them as lovers, finding joy and inspiration in every stroke and line I create.  These moments of live sketching are not just about documenting a scene; they are about immersing myself in the environment, feeling its rhythm, and translating that into a visual narrative.

Oil painting is a medium where I find profound creative expression. Using both contemporary methods and classic techniques, I create rich, textured, and vibrant works. This elusive medium enriches my overall artistic practice and complements my digital design work.
