Early period

In my early years, I drew inspiration from the raw beauty of nature. Snow-capped mountains and turbulent seas left a lasting impression on me, their contrasts teaching me to see both strength and subtlety in the world around me. I was fascinated by the way light danced across icy peaks, how shadows stretched and shifted over water, and the quiet power hidden in even the smallest details of the landscape.
Nature became a teacher, guiding my hand as I experimented with oil and graphite, showing me how to capture emotion, balance, and tension in a single frame. These early encounters with the natural world shaped not only the subjects I would choose but also the way I approach composition, texture, and form, laying the foundation for the fusion of realism and minimalism that defines my work today.
