Painting is my soul. I started drawing in early childhood. First, I attended an art studio, then I graduated from an art school, and I began to take painting seriously in college. The last few years have been a phase of experimentation and searching for my style. I worked with pencil, charcoal, pastel, acrylic, and watercolor, but ultimately decided to focus on oil painting, specifically on using the palette knife. All my recent works are created entirely with a palette knife, without the use of brushes. In my opinion, the broad, free strokes of the palette knife allow the painting to reveal itself more fully, giving it a unique charm and individuality that enhances its appeal.
