I have a deep passion for painting portraits as it allows me to convey a person's story through their eyes and facial expressions. As human beings, we exist by communicating, interacting and looking into each other's eyes, which makes portraiture an art form that truly captures the essence of humanity. Every portrait that I create is of someone with whom I have a personal connection, as I believe it's crucial to have their consent to tell their unique story. Through portraiture, I can capture not only a person's physical appearance but also their psychological state, creating a truly magical and powerful piece of art.
