Paintings
“Each work is a personal document and always a new adventure. I prefer working with oil paint because of its rich depth and warm appearance. When time is of the essence, I choose acrylic paint, but I always ensure that quality and expression are guaranteed.”
Commissioned works.
“A painting can be an unforgettable gift, for yourself or someone else. Your home or a business premises, a portrait—a painting—is so much more than just a picture.”
