I make layered stories about time, memory, and human experience — through symbolic images, natural forms, and the rich textures of mixed media. I was born and raised in Moldova, and as far back as I can remember, I have always been drawn to art. I would use whatever I could find—colour pencils, watercolours, gouache, and anything else that could become a tool for creating. Thirty years ago, I moved to Canada, always carrying a quiet dream that one day I would return to painting. That day finally came. Now, I am back to my favorite activity—and I can’t seem to stop. Painting has become a way for me to explore emotions, memories, ideas, and the beauty I see around me. In October 2026 I was part of Nocturne Art at Night Society (Nocturne).
