About the Artist

Flowers influenced my life since childhood, from the stylized floral embroidery I learned from my Hungarian mother to the dozens of splendid peony bushes in the gardens where I played. There was always a colorful vase of handpicked flowers on the table in the summer. I was fascinated with surface decorations, patterns and family place settings. The delicious kitchen smells and sound of preparation remain clear, adding dimension to the experience.

Painting flowers and vases within imaginary environments is my emotional marking, translating the warmth I feel from the past. The paintings are visual journeys between reality and imagination in time. It is an emotional response to form and color beyond representation.

I think about the fragility, the beauty, the symbolism and the grace of flowers as a reminder of the miraculous life moments we hold in our hands.
