For me, drawing is a form of meditation, a process that relieves stress and allows me to experience a state of 'flow'. It's my hope to continue using painting as a way to document my life.

My idol is Pierre-Auguste Renoir, and many of my paintings are inspired by his distinctive style. I often practice by copying his works. The photo on the right is of Renoir in his later years. Suffering from rheumatoid arthritis, his hands were deformed by the disease, necessitating assistance for him to paint. Despite this, his paintings continued to radiate a vivid and resonant tone, creating a soft, warm atmosphere reminiscent of an idyllic pastoral scene. This photo profoundly impacts me, illustrating his passion and perseverance for his art.
