"My paintings are a journey into the innocence, curiosity, and joy of childhood. Through my art, I capture the streets where I once played, the fields I wandered, and the emotions that shaped me. My work invites viewers to step into a world where personal history and cultural heritage merge, offering a deeply emotional and reflective experience."
