About Me
I have been drawing for as long as I can remember, but only in recent years have I started exploring what kind of artist I want to be. For a long time, my focus was on developing technical skills, primarily through ballpoint pen drawings, some of which are still featured on this website.
Over the past few years, I've begun moving beyond realistic drawing and experimenting with different materials, ideas, and ways of working. I'm currently learning how to combine technical skill with creativity and how to create something of my own rather than simply replicate what I see.
Portraits and the human figure have always been at the center of my work, and they continue to be a starting point for much of what I make. As my practice develops, I'm interested in exploring new forms, materials, and ways of expressing.
Commissions
Alongside my personal work, I also create commissioned pieces. At the moment, I offer A5 oil portrait commissions for €100 as a way to make original artwork more accessible while I continue to develop my practice.
If you are interested in a larger piece, a different style, or have a specific idea in mind, feel free to contact me via email or Instagram. I'd be happy to discuss the possibilities.
