Self-portraits, a timeless genre in the art world, have captivated audiences for centuries. Artists, across different epochs and styles, have been drawn to capturing their own image on canvas. But why do artists paint self-portraits? I wanted to dig deeper into the intriguing motivations behind this artistic practice. And here are few of my observations.

In December of 2023 I had a joy of viewing an art exhibition of smaller works. In this way of artistic expression, there's something utterly enchanting about embracing the beauty of small wonders.

My mind tends to lean toward the abstract. In a gallery or museum, I naturally gravitate towards abstract art before exploring figurative pieces. However, my own artwork is figurative and surreal, blending elements of abstraction into my creations.
