Step inside and let yourself be moved

My art is an open dialogue, an invitation to pause and feel. Each of my works is born from a deep desire to awaken emotions and create a connection. I paint what moves and inspires me, far from trends and conventions. Because for me, art means being authentic, finding myself again in every brushstroke. I love to paint people—their faces, their gestures, their stories. Whether as individuals or in a crowd, I try to capture the full spectrum of human perceptions and emotions. My paintings are snapshots of the soul, captured memories and dreams that spring from my imagination and my view of the world. In this process, I playfully move between different techniques:

 * My acrylic paintings have an almost meditative power, as their depth unfolds layer by layer.

 * In my watercolors, I let the colors dance. They are as spontaneous as life itself, a fleeting motion where time seems to blur with every drop.

Especially watercolor are for me the perfect metaphor for our fast-paced times. It allows me to leave traces without committing to them—as if I were painting just in passing, leaving fleeting suggestions. It’s a reduction to the essential, a compressed memory that is so powerful precisely because of that.

Career

Born in Banat (Romania), I graduated from School of Fine Arts in Timisoara. I completed a three-year apprenticeship as a makeup and wig artist at the State Opera. At the same time, I studied languages ​​and graduated with a degree in Philology.

Since 1983, I live and work in Germany as a freelance artist and makeup artist for television, film, and theatre
