Statement

I primarily focus on oil painting, drawing, and cyanotype process collages, using old photographs as my guide and inspiration to my work. I look for photos from flea markets and old family albums that touch something in me and make me want to paint the people I see in these scenes from a different era long gone. I revive them through my own eyes and give them a new meaning, intertwined with my own experiences and emotions.
