“Flowers in Mosaic” 80x80 cm. Acrylic + Modeling paste + Oil on canvass. Piano by Léa - Chopin Waltz #9 For this painting, I simply wanted to celebrate beautiful flowers. I often find the background the most difficult part of a floral painting, so this time I decided not to approach it in the traditional way. Instead, I created a mosaic-like background, using blocks of color to frame the bouquet and help bring the flowers forward as the focal point. I used a flower arrangemen

Puddle Water has always fascinated me because it can hold so many colors, almost like a rainbow. For this painting, I wanted to imagine a simple puddle as a small world of color and movement. I thought about the seven colors of the rainbow reflected in water, and about a childhood memory: after the rain, I loved putting on my boots and jumping into puddles, watching the water splash up around me. I wanted to bring that playful feeling into the painting — not to paint a realis

Sunrise Whenever I am by the sea, I wake up very early to watch the sunrise. I never want to miss it. There is something about the first light of the day that gives me energy—not only to begin a new day, but also to recover from the shocks and difficulties that life can bring. We may fall, sometimes very deeply, but I believe we can find the strength to rise again. I have gone through serious illnesses myself and, at one point, came close to losing my life. During those diffi

This painting was inspired by Chopin’s Prelude No. 15, commonly known as the Raindrop Prelude. It is the second work in my ongoing project of translating piano music into painting. While playing this piece, I began to see a forest in the rain. At first, the rain is gentle—small, delicate drops that come and go, echoing the quiet and intermittent rhythm of the music. As the piece develops, however, the atmosphere changes. The music enters a much darker and more intense passage

Tempest in Transformation Acrylic on canvas 60 cm x 80 cm This painting emerged from my personal encounter with Beethoven’s Piano Sonata No. 17, “Tempest.” As I practiced the sonata, a vivid image repeatedly appeared in my mind: currents of wind, water, and energy spiraling through space. At the center of the composition are two circular movements. The larger vortex, rendered in deep blues, greys, browns, and whites, evokes turbulent waters and powerful winds. It reflects the

Sakura Moonlight 80cm x 60cm, acrylic, texture and oil on canvass In this painting, I sought to capture the mysterious beauty of cherry blossoms illuminated by moonlight. Beneath the night sky, the blossoms seem to dance around a radiant moon, creating a sense of movement, energy, and quiet wonder. For me, sakura are more than flowers. They symbolize the fleeting nature of life, renewal, and the interconnectedness of all things. The swirling composition evokes the flow of ene

This painting marks a new direction in my work, inspired by a technique I observed in my teacher’s approach. The flowers are intentionally softened with a subtle blur, allowing them to feel almost suspended in the space rather than sharply defined. This shift in focus creates a quiet tension between clarity and atmosphere. While the flowers remain the emotional center, my attention gradually moved toward the background. The sky-like blue, surrounding plants, and muted tones o

Color Project #3 This piece is part of a Color Project series where I explore the shifting colors within the ocean. Rather than seeing water as simply blue or green, I wanted to capture its true complexity—the subtle transitions, the hidden tones, and the way light transforms its surface moment by moment. In this work, I also experimented with silver leaf for the first time. Unlike gold, silver reflects light in a much cooler, more fluid way. It interacts with the surrounding

This painting explores the harmony of color, energy, and form through a vibrant bouquet of roses. At the center, a focal flower anchors the composition, surrounded by layers of pink, red, purple, and soft yellow roses. Each color was carefully chosen to create movement and balance, allowing the flowers to interact like a living field of color and emotion. The vase became an important element in the composition. After considering a transparent vase, I chose a deep blue tone to

This painting represents Autumn, a season of fulfillment, harvest, and quiet transformation. It reflects what has been gained through summer—the growth, warmth, and energy accumulated after the awakening of spring. Each circle symbolizes a fruit of energy: nourishment formed through time, light, and patience. What began in spring as potential has matured through summer, becoming visible, abundant, and complete. These circular forms are not only fruits of the earth, but also o
