At the moment, my work consists in painting wildlife on feathers using acrylics. I paint mainly birds but also mammals and herpetofauna.

 I am a field biologist that rediscovered the passion for making art in 2019 while looking for something to do in my free time. Since then, I have been trying all sorts of arts and crafts (charcoal, oil painting, watercolour, nail art, wall art). Making art is like a getaway for me, a world where I can be myself and not think of anything.

 I am a self taught artist with a strong belief that my art is making people pay more attention to the wildlife around them. Also, I like to write little stories or facts about the species that I paint, hoping to encourage interest in understanding nature.
