I live and work in Transylvania, Romania. By profession I am a psychologist, employed as a speech therapist in the public educational system. I had studied fine arts for over 8 years before graduating from the Nicolae Tonitza High School for the Arts, in Bucharest.
I resumed painting again in the last 6-7 years, after having completed the in depths studies in psychology necessary in my profession.

I rediscover now with pleasure, just as in the years of my artistic apprenticeship, a variety of tools, materials and techniques, many of which inspire me in equal measure.
My works are drawings, collages, and watercolors. However, the largest part of my artistic productions consists of reverse-glass paintings. Inspired by the traditional techniques of the folk painters of Transylvania, as well as by the medieval imagery, as we know it from the illuminated manuscripts of the Middle Ages, I attempt to forge a personal path and an individual style in using and reviving this fascinating technique.

Building a genuine “artistic career” is not of particular interest to me. I find the Internet, with its numerous online galleries, most advantageous for my aims – even though glass painting is challenging to photograph and loses a great deal of its charm in such a display modality. But for me this choice of presentation is a straightforward way to share the art of glass painting, not much known or practiced, and often unjustly relegated to the category of “crafts”.
