Over time, art became more than just a creative outlet — it became my sanctuary, especially after I was diagnosed with multiple sclerosis.

Living with MS has changed the way I see the world. It’s taught me to slow down, to notice the little things, and to find strength in softness. That’s why so much of my work is centered around emotion, femininity, and self-expression. I’m passionate about illustrating tender, almost poetic moments — whether that’s through floral elements, nostalgic colors, or quiet but powerful portraits.

Through my art, I want to offer comfort, connection, and a sense of being seen. If someone can look at a piece and feel understood — even just a little — then I’ve done what I set out to do.
