It's the cherished word VICTORY! I associate it with a bright orange butterfly and free flight of the soul. It is that feeling when you rejoice deep inside yourself, afraid to scare away good luck. The whole world is transfigured and is a world.
▶ARTIST STATEMENT
I have always been fascinated by the intricate patterns on butterfly wings. I began to imagine: if I could create a living creature, what kind of wings would it have? My fantasy butterflies embody different emotions, each expressed through unique color combinations.
▶ARTISTIC TECHNIQUE
I work in a distinctive mixed-media technique: starting with a rich, textured oil background on paper, then layering it with watercolor and acrylic to create depth and vibrancy.
