To see a sample of my works, take a look at the Gallery section of this site.

If you happen to own any of these early works, please get in touch with me, as I would love to hear from you, and have some pictures of these "lost" paintings!
You will learn a lot about me and my news if you go to the Blog section of this site. Further more, it will give you a better insight on some paintings, my process and other things that cannot be analyzed in the gallery section.
