Working with acrylics, oils, inks, found objects, and natural ochres sourced from Southern France, the artist creates mixed media works layered with vivid color, texture, and pattern. Drawing on travels across continents and life in Andalusia, Spain, each composition blends memory, culture, and imagination. The artist’s process is intuitive and experimental, sparked by places, people, or moments of wonder, resulting in multi-layered pieces that reflect both tradition and innovation. These works explore cultural stories, symbols, and the interplay of diverse materials, forming a visual dialogue between East and West.
