"I consider myself an imaginative illustrator & writer, passionate about creating dreamlike scenarios and characters using watercolors, gouache and other traditional art supplies, seeking inspiration from Fairy Tales, poetry and Life itself. I believe that our experiences made us exactly who we are, so why not use it as inspiration?

 

However, feelings speak louder and, as art is a reflection of the artist's soul, you can find part of my soul in some of my works. If you find it, be kind,

offer him a smile or a cup of tea...  and talk a little about life."
