Artist Statement

In my journey as an oil painter, I find myself irresistibly drawn to the allure of vintage photographs as a wellspring of inspiration. Each faded image encapsulates a moment suspended in time, a fragment of history, and a glimpse into lives lived long ago. Through my work, I seek to bridge the gap between past and present, breathing new life into these cherished relics.

The act of painting from these vintage photographs is, for me, an intimate journey through time. It is a process of uncovering and reimagining histories, both personal and collective. Through my art, I invite viewers to not only witness these reimagined moments but to also feel the textures of time, the layers of life, and the poignant beauty of what once was.
