Seeing the World, One Sketch at a Time
Something magical happens when you take the time to truly observe a place and capture it on paper.
I’ve always loved to travel — to explore new places, meet new people, and taste unfamiliar food. But only through Urban Sketching did I really start to see. Sketching makes me slow down and immerse myself in the moment. Each scene I draw becomes a lasting memory — captured in my sketchbook. The light, the sounds, the interactions. Come have a look.
About me
I began painting with watercolors at an early age and discovered acrylics a few years later. After a long break, art found its way back into my life through Urban Sketching — capturing every day moments quickly in my sketchbook.
Today, I work both on location and in the studio, where my sketches often inspire larger acrylic paintings. I love experimenting with materials — mixing ink, acrylics and markers. Whether painting outdoors or working on canvas, creating art helps me slow down and connect with the world around me.
