The Inspiration
My paintings are influenced by music, gastronomy, and hidden meanings. I imagine what "taste" or "aroma" a painting should have and the kind of music that would complement it. Each piece carries deep meaning. People often tell me they discover new ideas in my work, sometimes years after first seeing it.
I exclusively paint in oil on canvas, as it gives me the freedom to mix colors exactly as I want. Other techniques never gave me the same control.
Each painting takes me 3-4 weeks to complete. My greatest influences are Hieronymus Bosch and modern surrealists, whose imaginative worlds continue to inspire my own visual language.
