About my art...I fully immerse myself in the music that I translate into visual art. Although I'm an amateur musician, I study music scores closely, creating initial sketches and even learning some piano passages to deepen my connection with the piece. My sketches and notes capture the emotional nuances of the music, guiding my choices in color and texture. Through this process, I develop a cohesive series of paintings that collectively interpret the essence of each composition. For each series, I work with a range of water-based and dry media on diverse surfaces, including wood, metal, and canvas, to bring the music to life visually.
