The Story:
From an early age, painting has been a constant in my life, quickly becoming an anchor for me. As a child, I loved capturing the world around me in drawings and discovering my own perspective through them.
I trained as a graphic designer and keep my skills up-to-date with regular continuing education. During my training as a pharmacist, I discovered my passion for plants and medicinal herbs. This love for nature continues to shape my work today, inspiring my designs in a unique way.
Nature is my greatest source of inspiration – nothing fulfills me more than being outdoors, hiking, savoring the quiet, and capturing my impressions in sketches. The colors, shapes, and moods of nature put me into a creative flow where I lose track of time and become fully immersed in my work.
If you’re interested in creative commissions, collaborations, or licensing, I’d be delighted to hear from you!
