My Lifestory in a Book

I am a dreamer and a realist.
As I explained in the section about myself, nature and romantic painting are a refuge where I can express who I truly am deep inside. I experienced no love or warmth in my childhood.
Even as an adult woman, I have faced constant struggles and endured difficult times.
Therefore, through my art, I want to encourage people to reconnect with fundamental human values such as respect, acceptance, and equality.
Furthermore, I feel a deep connection to nature and sometimes immerse myself in fantasy worlds in my work. In that sense, from a realist's perspective, I try to create a romantic and innocent world and thereby send a message to the world.
Poetry and fairy tales complete my driving force and motivation for generating my ideas and creating my works.
I enjoy creating works in the style of contemporary Impressionism, sometimes incorporating Expressionist details. Additionally, a certain lyrical abstraction and Romanticism appear in my work, particularly in the paintings from the "Gallery of Swans" series.

David versus Goliath

I have carried my story within me for many years. I began giving it color and form through painting, and now a book is emerging from that process as well.

"David vs. Goliath" tells the story of a person’s struggles—someone who, despite numerous setbacks, never stopped believing in hope, dignity, and a fresh start.

The book is currently in development. Many of the themes and emotions described in it are already reflected in my paintings. Consequently, the art and the book are not separate projects; they tell the same story in two different ways.

Topics I cover in my book

  • A difficult childhood
  • Challenging phases of life
  • Personal struggles
  • My personal transformation
  • My two experiences of emigrating
  • Turning points
  • Why I started painting at 42
  • Why David became a symbol for me
  • How I became strong
