I am a narrative portrait artist who loves to paint and draw figures with a hint of story. While my object is mostly human, I also like to feature figures of all kind, such as animals, dolls, bugs and so on. I occasionally make works that are not portrait; even then, the essence of story-telling is still in there.

Sometimes I receive unique inquiries for commissioned portrait to recreate portraits without exact photograph to replicate from.

I find power in my art to know I can turn not only my imagination but also people’s special memories into a physical form they can see and cherish.
