In the hustle and bustle of modern life, where every moment seems to be filled with noise and activity, there exists a gentle remedy that beckons us to slow down and savor the beauty around us. FLOWERS
Flowers, with their captivating allure and enchanting fragrances, have a magical ability to captivate our senses and inspire a sense of joy and tranquility.
Since I was a child, I was always naturally attracted to flowers... whenever I see flower fields, daisies, sunflowers, wild flowers... I felt an immense joy fill my heart.
I think when growing up, we lose this natural human behavior... and tend to forget how essential it is.
When I first started to paint, flowers and animals were my first favorite subject.
I want to bring in people's home that magical energy of flowers.
When we encounter any flower, whether in a bustling city square or a serene countryside garden, there is an instinctive urge to pause and admire their delicate petals and vibrant colors.
In that moment of connection, time seems to stand still as we are drawn into the enchanting world of nature's creations.

The presence of flowers serves as a gentle reminder to embrace the art of slow living—a philosophy that encourages us to savor the present moment, cultivate mindfulness, and find joy in life's simple pleasures.
My art is a reflection of that spirit, peaceful energy. When looking at my paintings I feel the same emotions as when I see flowers. We make one.
I feel inner peace, I feel like taking a moment for myself and breathe. It is almost like a moment of meditation.

I believe the simple act of stopping to admire a flower is a revolutionary act of self-love.
Surrounding yourself with Art and Flowers can be a simple yet powerful practice of self-care.
Whether it's arranging a bouquet for our home, tending to a garden, or simply taking a leisurely stroll through a botanical garden, the presence of flowers reminds us to slow down, breathe deeply, and appreciate the beauty that surrounds us.
