Artist Statement

Everything in life has a starting point. So I began wondering, when did my romance with the colors, design and smell of flowers start? Could it have happened a long time ago, when I was a little girl, making flower arrangements in my mother’s small apartment in the country, which doesn’t exist anymore because of the political changes?

Perhaps it came later. My memory kept the smells, colors and sensations and came back when I fell in love with life again and chose to never give up on my dreams. Anyway I know it sprouted a long time ago and it took me some time to figure it out…

My Mix-Media floral structures live endlessly. Overall, I do it to connect people and flowers. To me it’s all about Love and Inspiration. When you know why you undertake something, success will come along.
