When it comes to buildings, I love to draw stone, brick and ornaments. Norman castles are great, some Gothic cathedrals are also fun to sketch loosely, even though they take a very long time. Drawing brick buildings is quite meditative, so when I arrive to a new city, I usually start with a brick building to loosen up.

I also adore Dutch maps from the 1600’s, so drawing in that style is fascinating to me.

I’m also beginning to explore subjects such as illness, cancer, and dyslexia. These themes take me a little deeper than my usual subjects, but life has provided me with some interesting and unexpected avenues to explore.

I definitely want to work on some collections exploring the history of Mexico and Pre-Hispanic art. I’d also love to create a few maps of the Balkans, both contemporary and historical.

Currently, I’m exploring the use of nature in my work, making pigments and cyanotypes using water collected from lakes and rivers around the area. I want to deepen my knowledge of the natural world while also experimenting with different mediums and processes.

- Hahnemuhle Watercolor Notebooks for travel are my absolutely favorite. (Cold Press 250gsm, A6 Portrait)

- Arches watercolor paper, alternating between the cold and hot pressed for individual illustrations.

- Pigma Micron pens. Can’t live without them. From sizes 0.03 to 08.

- Escoda travel series brushes. Perla and Reserva Kolinsky collections.

It all started with photography, and then I discovered fine-liners and watercolors. Now I make cyanotypes and paint on them with my own natural pigments, playing with the chemistry of water I collect from nature and the organic matter in it. I also sometimes create impasto pieces with oils and experiment with charcoal, pastels, clay, woodcuts, and linocuts. I’m always trying to learn something new, whether it’s finding ways to incorporate fabrics, flowers, and gold leaf into my pieces or experimenting with new materials and techniques.
