Artist Statement
My work explores the quiet beauty and delicate moments of nature, seeking to capture the emotions they bring to our daily lives. Sunflowers hold a special place in my art—they symbolize brightness and resilience, evoking a sense of sunshine even on the gloomiest days.
As a new artist, my artistic journey has been shaped by my time at Place des Arts, where I had the opportunity to explore various mediums and refine my technical skills through valuable feedback and guidance from my teachers. For this piece, I chose acrylics as my medium, as their vibrant colours and versatility allowed me to convey the warmth and energy of the sunflowers.
Through my art, I hope to share moments of reflection and joy, inviting viewers to find light and beauty in the simplest elements of nature.
