BIO

I am born in 1976 in Estonia. Painting is my passion since early childhood. My biggest influencers have been my granny and aunt, together we represent three generations of artists.

Above all, I am fascinated by visual art. I work in both traditional and digital media, from time to time I also create applied art. In everyday life I am working as a graphic designer, also as a teacher and instructor.

My art varies between edges of themes, styles and techniques, differs in media, subjects, emotions and moods. I am constantly seeking for new experiences and returning to old habits. That kind of practice makes the art I create versatile, eclectic, abundant, defiant and jumpy but also gives a freedom of artistic expression.

My experience of mindfulness from the flow state when fully immersed in my creative process led me to study more closely art therapy which I include in my teaching methods now. As a professional teacher I have 10 years experience with students of all ages.

In my daily life, I work as a graphic designer and team leader in the food and confectionary industry, give design lectures and constantly educate myself in art.

From time to time I accept commissioned works, just let me know if you need my services.
