— Did you always know you wanted to be an artist?

— I still can’t say I know exactly what an artist means. I remember I always wanted to be someone special and inspiring! I guess the greatest perk that comes with it though is the knowledge and freedom. Behind my artwork is a long story. I started 10 years ago as a passion, but sometimes life distracts us from doing what we really wish to do!

I discovered the culture of wine, a world full of elegance and refinement of the senses. Wine is the only artwork we can drink! I always wanted to do special things to evolve,and people really evolve when what they do is out of passion!

— How you decided to paint again?

— This was not a decision, was a revelation. Last year, when my grandmother past away I’ve had such a sad time in my life and I prayed and asked her what to do with my life. Those we love never truly leave us!

There are things that death can’t touch! I returned to my true passion, and I strongly belive that artists should be appreciated and recognized during their life time. Unfortunately their artworks are valued only when they are no longer among us.
