BE, °1993 – Lives and works in Ostend, Belgium.
My paintings reflect my everyday surroundings and experiences. I focus on subjects such as still lifes, interiors, and urban scenes, finding beauty in the simplicity of daily life.
I draw inspiration from my immediate environment—my home, walks through the city, and the travels I undertake. I always work from my own photographs, sometimes adjusting the composition or colors to create a more compelling visual result.
My aim is to offer viewers a new perspective on familiar scenes and to capture moments that might otherwise go unnoticed. My work is an invitation to pause and appreciate the quiet beauty of the everyday, and to reconnect with the world around us.
