I am a Romanian artist currently based in Dubai, United Arab Emirates. I started painting at the tender age of 3, before I could read or write and I won my first national award at the age of 10 – competing against mature artists of all ages.
I have been painting Christian icons ever since childhood and even though my style has developed greatly over the years, many of my works still carry a byzantine influence to date.
Strong emotions and my devotion to God are the main sources of inspiration which is why my artworks are so deeply expressive, creating a bridge between my soul and the souls of viewers.

“My purpose is not necessarily to create something beautiful, but rather something meaningful; To pour my entire heart and emotions on the canvas, my heartbreaks, my tears and joys – because this is what constitutes us, as human beings… I want any other human seeing my work to relate to it, to plunge even deeper into their emotions through my art, experience an unexpected catharsis, to feel understood, to know they are not alone and, in some cases, (re)gain their hope and faith”
Other than a painter, I am also a polyglot and a sports enthusiast. I speak 8 languages including my native Romanian and when not painting I love practicing Muay Thai and Brazilian Jiu Jitsu.
