About Me
A self-taught artist, I’ve loved drawing since childhood. I started with a pencil, learning through simple sketches and quiet moments of practice.

I currently paint still life, portraits, and landscapes. My portfolio is still small, but I’m taking my artistic journey seriously and developing my work step by step. My goal is to grow consistently, learn from every painting, and build a solid foundation for my style in the future.
Alongside painting, I enjoy photography and video editing, and I see them as tools that strengthen my eye for composition, lighting, and visual storytelling.
