My oil paintings are vibrant expressions inspired by the unique atmosphere and fleeting beauty encountered during my travels. I meticulously photograph these transient locations, often devoid of people, to create a sense of timelessness and invite viewers into a personal memory captured on canvas. Through bold lines and vivid colours, I capture the essence of a scene rather than strict realism, preserving the magic of a moment before it disappears. My art explores the themes of time and change, sharing the unique energy and atmosphere of a place, inviting viewers to experience the world through my eyes and contemplate the impermanence of beauty.
