"Beauty of Being Seen"
2025
48x48, acrylic on canvas
Against a deep blue velvet backdrop, vivid colors bloom upward and outward, unfolding in a gentle revelation—inner beauty reserved for the eye that sees its worth.
"Beauty of Being Seen" is a visual manifestation of what I felt when I met my future husband. The gentle magic of two souls recognizing each other transformed the canvas into a lively energy, full of bright colors that rose and blossomed.
"Petals and memories"
2026
48x60, acrylic on canvas
Soft and whimsical, this painting evokes childhood memories of a little girl's playground overflowing with colorful petals and blooming flowers. She crafts delicate ballerina gowns from wildflowers and dresses dolls woven from grass.
The overlapping petals and soft, pale membranes create an ethereal choreography of light and air. This brings a sensation of fragility and the beauty of impermanence.
“Petals and Memories” is a meditation on childhood innocence and transformation, rendered with restrained abstraction that preserves the enduring magic of those early, imaginative moments.
"Clarity"
2025
36x48, acrylic on canvas
A sensation like liquid crystal, clarity flows through with freedom, understanding, and acceptance. Fear and confusion dissolve, leaving only pure transparency.
Clarity emerges as many islands of calm, where dreaming, forgiving, and simply being come effortlessly. It feels as if divine wisdom fills your mind and a gentle lightness lifts your heart, even if only briefly. Once you have tasted clarity, you cannot help but seek it again.
"Dance of Life"
2024
48X60, acrylic on canvas
A warm and uplifting meditation on vitality and movement, where light, form, and space play together to evoke joy, spontaneity, and the ceaseless dance of life.
This painting is a visual ode to life's ribbon-like choreography, suggesting continuous transformation and flow, while grace and elegance become not only the way but also the goal.
I painted "Dance of Life" for my dear friend Vida, who gracefully embodied the energetic blueprint for this refined expression of the human spirit.

"Flowers of the Wailing Wall"
2024
36x48, acrylic on canvas
This piece is painted as a tribute to grief and resilience in the face of the unimaginable loss of the October 7, 2023, massacre, followed by the death of my nephew in Gaza and, only a few months later, the death of my children's father.
With grief so deafening, I painted a lifeline of love that endures through sorrow, with delicate buds of vibrant color hinting at moments of tender hope that guide the way forward. Loss and healing, perceived simultaneously, exist within the gentle translucency of the soft white and grey petals.
While embracing and honoring the loss, life weaves sorrow into renewal. It expands endlessly, and it encourages us to do the same.

"Tenderness"
2024
48x60, acrylic on canvas
Membrane-thin "Tenderness" explores the search for the raw beauty of life. It suggests that beneath the seemingly dull surface of our everyday existence, mirrored in the murky waters of a mossy pond, lies a depth of beauty waiting to be discovered. This painting invites us to look beyond the veil of rationality to uncover the mysterious, enticing layer of beauty and wonder beneath.
"Surrender"
2023
48x48, acrylic on canvas
This art piece is about giving up in the best of ways. Letting go into softness, into the comfort of being yourself...
A lullaby-like color palette of muted peach, blush, and amber with subtle touches of lavender and cream, combined with a gentle map of soft folding shapes, invites to join in the ritual of release, surrender, and gentle acceptance.
"Surrender" lacks struggle and allows for rest inside a warm embrace of luxurious ease of being.
"Unraveling"
2022
48x48, acrylic on canvas
"Unraveling" depicts the process of making sense of things and events, deconstructing yourself, and putting yourself back together. We often face this process alone and in the dark; we slowly transform our small, contracted reality into an expansive one, like a blooming flower. Through unraveling, we blossom into a renewed and expanded version of ourselves. This piece represents the potential and the process of metamorphosis of the human spirit.
"Trust"
2023
48x60, acrylic on canvas
This piece is about trust in life itself, trust in the ultimate wisdom and kindness of Divinity, and belief in nature's highest intelligence.
The shapes appear steady and stable, yet not stagnant. The multiple outlines create a sense of flexibility. Trust is strong and resilient; it is sustainable and enduring.
The colorful, dynamic lines represent the natural flow of life, establishing a progression that always ascends toward a higher state. Like the wings of a butterfly, we can soar into the beauty of our existence when we are grounded by our trust in divinity.
"Seduced by caramel and lace"
2023
48x48, acrylic on canvas
A tribute to the sensual and seductive culture of Brazil, this composition resembles a dance that exudes passionate rhythm and deep comfort with its delicious exploration of pleasure.
Deep greens layer in reference to Brazil's lush rainforest, while subtle wisps of purple and indigo add mystery and depth.
The hypnotic distribution of shapes and textures throughout the composition suggests discovery and enjoyment.
"Azure"
2022
48x60, acrylic on canvas
Inspired by the beauty and wisdom of the ancient Greek coast, this painting embodies the art of containment— the perfectly balanced synthesis of male and female energies.
The masculine presence is rendered as clay: forged in fire, firm and resolute, yet inherently brittle. The feminine essence, cast in water, flows with an eternal, supple grace—ever-changing, yet steadfast in its pliability.
Together, these elements interlock and harmonize, each shaping and elevating the other. The work stands as an ode to union and reciprocity, a visual meditation on the intertwined forces that sustain and enrich one another.

"Aphrodite rising"
2022
60x72 , acrylic on canvas
This large canvas art piece powerfully communicates the power of beauty and love rising up.
Aphrodite emerges from the ocean water, and she herself is the force of nature. her flowing, ethereal form- the feminine principle embodied in fluid contours and silken transitions of color. The composition leans into the delicate interplay of pale, translucent color and movement, allowing for the mythic weight of an ancient goddess reawakening—a declaration of strength, renewal, and the inexhaustible power of beauty.
The painting speaks with a confident quiet: a celebration of rising energy from the sea's embrace.
"Valley of My Dreams"
2021
60x72 , acrylic on canvas
I used to go on a beautiful hike while making this painting: from the top of the hill, the valley opened up. Once I reached the top, I would sit and look into that valley and often reflect on the nature of a dream, specifically, a dream of a woman. The shapes in this painting are outlines of that valley.
The red color palette communicates the raw nature of being a woman: red as lips, red as menstrual blood, red as the birth of a child, red as rage, red as passion... As tumultuous as it is, the dream of a woman remains soft—white and pink elements introduce a degree of feminine tenderness. The raw and unapologetic truth of being a woman feels gutted but remains beautiful in its dancelike fluidity.
"Joy"
2019
60x72 , acrylic on canvas
Playful, abundant, unrestricted and carefree. "Joy" has you turning towards the sunshine and running through the field of sunflowers. It is laughter and well-being. Joy is the twin sister of happiness and she doesn't waste precious time and energy on anything, but enjoying being herself.
