Portraits
These fascinating representations of female figures have the power to awaken intense emotions among observers. Through vibrant expressions, they capture the essence of the female soul with extraordinary sensitivity.
Still life
Still life, with its static beauty, captures the fleeting essence of life through motionless objects and compositions. It reveals the fragility and mutability of life, immortalizing moments of stillness and contemplation.
