"All ideas begin with putting pencil to paper. It’s the first point of contact between thought and form, where intuition takes over and the creative process begins to unfold. Drawing allows me to capture fleeting ideas, emotions, and impressions—sometimes intentionally, sometimes by surprise. Whether it leads to a finished piece or remains as a sketch, this initial act of mark-making is where the heart of my work begins. It’s raw, immediate, and honest—a space where imagination and instinct meet."
