To welcome the new autumn season (my favorite season!), I am organizing an End of Summer Sale: a unique opportunity to bring original art into your home at a reduced price. September 7 to September 21, 2025.

I'm offering something special and completely free: 'Painting Preview' , the option to send me a photo of your wall, so I can digitally insert the painting. This gives you a trial placement, and you can immediately see how it works in your interior.

Weathered art in landscapes can be moving because of its imperfection and silence. Imperfect art, with old layers, cracks, and weathered textures. Why do these elements appeal to us so much?

Original silent art can be just as meaningful when there is peace and space. The power lies precisely in the emptiness and silence. Empty spaces, calm colors, room for interpretation by the viewer. These are elements that are just as important as the materials used to create the painting.

Wabi-Sabi is an aesthetic and philosophical concept from Japan that sees beauty in the transitory and the imperfect. Objects may have cracks. Surfaces may be covered with moss. Paper may be yellowed and stained.

One person in a landscape or urban landscape creates the story and immediately draws all the attention to themselves. As a viewer, you immediately start asking questions about the reason for that figure's presence in that place. And why alone? Many people immediately feel connected to that person. In my work, I keep coming back to that one moment: a child or a person, almost monochrome, lost in space – but never really alone.

Weathered art touches us because it shows that something has lived but does not remain as it was—and there is something comforting, something real about that.
