Image description:
At first glance, this still life depicts a simple, almost childlike scene: a laid table, two chairs, a few plates, bread, drinks and small details that hint at the moment of eating. The forms are clear, the colours are vibrant, and everything appears deliberately kept simple. It is precisely this simplicity that draws the eye to what is essential – not to excess or perfection, but to the shared experience.
The picture tells of a shared meal, of quiet togetherness. The empty chairs do not appear abandoned, but inviting – as if the meal were only made complete through the company of others. It is less about what is actually on the table and more about what lies behind it: sharing, being together, taking a moment to pause.
At a time when so much seems to be taken for granted, this work reminds us just how meaningful simple things are. Having enough to eat, sharing a table, being part of a community – all of this is not merely part of everyday life, but a gift. The still life thus becomes a gentle invitation to become more consciously aware of and to appreciate precisely these things.

I work intuitively – my paintings take shape in the moment, driven by my feelings. Colours, shapes and lines flow onto the canvas without any plan. I love the playful and the spontaneous. This often results in vibrant, colourful works that have a childlike quality – carefree, open and warm-hearted.
My art is meant to move people, but not overwhelm them. I want to bring a smile to the viewer’s face, a feeling of warmth and comfort. Perhaps to bring back a little lightness to an often noisy, complicated world.
As well as painting, I also work with analogue photography – a conscious focus on small, genuine moments. I capture simple, everyday situations that are usually overlooked. For me, art is a place where I am free – and that is exactly what I want to convey.
