Italians embody the concept of "La Dolce Vita". There's nothing like experiencing la dolce vita, which literally means "the sweet life".

La Dolce Vita is a lifestyle that celebrates the good things in life, enjoying them to the fullest. It's about savoring every moment and living each day with a sense of joy and appreciation. When you live la dolce vita, you fill your life with enriching experiences and lasting memories. Every day is an opportunity to enjoy something new, whether it's exploring a new city or trying new food. La dolce vita is all about savoring the good things in life and making the most of every moment.

“I firmly believe that nature brings solace in all troubles.”

The word solace means to find comfort or consollation from grief, distress or sadness. Over the past several years, I've gone through some challenging times on a personal level and through that, I've been drawn to paint nature scenes that for me, provide solace. As you can see from this collection, I've been particularly drawn to trees and water. Anytime I'm surrounded by trees or next to a serene body of water, I feel like everything in my body exhales and I am overcome with a profound sense of peace. I can let go of whatever is making me sad or stressing me out - there are no people or traffic, no loud noises and sounds ... you can close your eyes and hear all the sounds of nature - the water lapping, birds chirping, an animal scurrying in the brush. And there's actually science behind it - being out in nature lowers levels of your stress hormones ... and it's cheaper than therapy! In short, my paintings are places I want to be when I'm surrounded by the stresses of life.

This series these paintings: Embrace, Shine Bright, Reflect, Fall Beauty and Rejoice.
