When you fall in love with something you naturally want to protect it. In my paintings I create powerful visualizations of the beauty of the ocean but also exhibit the devastating effects of human impact. Coral reefs are living and complex organism, the heart of an immense habitat of marine species. Without this pillar a major part of sea life can become close to extinction, which will ultimately effect all of us as well. Their disappearance will entail a disastrous imbalance on all: ecological, climate and human levels. That’s why I intend to connect viewers with the underwater living world and I hope to spark a conversation about importance of marine conservation.

I would like my art to be like a window into the world not everyone has an opportunity to see.

My goal is to capture and preserve unique scenery, exquisite moments and create a visual depiction of the natural world, an endangered world that may not be available in the future. My biggest mission is to create paintings that have not only aesthetic impact on the viewer, but also can trigger emotions and important questions.
