My favorite projects bring people together and spark meaningful reflection. I dive into the creative process, often surprised by where it leads. Drawing on my background as a makeup artist in Europe and the U.S., I developed a freestyle body painting method—photographing painted subjects and using the images as inspiration or directly in my mixed-media work. This intuitive approach, born on photoshoots where I was given artistic freedom, trained my eye and hand for portraiture without formal instruction. At the core of my work is a deep love for people and a desire to capture honest, revealing moments—sometimes even glimpses of who they might become.
