I have dreamed of becoming an artist since childhood. I often hid behind the couch, covered in shadows, reproducing my drawings for hours. Quietly, like a mouse, I painted fairy tales on paper, where each stroke reflected my hopes and dreams.

But family problems and the pressure of society sharply separated me from the art world, which I dreamed of connecting my life with. So after my graduation, I've worked in IT for 8 years to survive and be able to stand on my own feet, leaving my creative dreams far behind.

However, nothing can extinguish true desire, and even in the darkest night, it shines with its fire. Thanks to years of systemic therapy, antidepressants, and healthy relationships, I finally opened the door to my inner child, so she could step out and walk proudly into the light.

Now I am here, among colors, paints, and textures, experimenting and creating, feeling the joy of being myself again.

This is my native way of being an artist.
