Bio

Coming from a predominantly linguistic background (I studied Italian Language and Literature at the Kliment Ohridski University of Sofia, Bulgaria), I spent several years working as an interpreter and translator. After graduating, I decided to move to the gorgeous Renaissance city of Florence and made it my home for five glorious years.

Later, ready for a change and a new adventure, I took a leap of faith and relocated to London - a city I had never visited before and whose language I didn’t speak (I had studied French and Russian at school). Since then, London has become home - one of the best decisions I have ever made, and the place that reignited what I thought was a lost inspiration to create.

Although I spent countless hours drawing as a child, I abandoned my artistic side in my teenage years, frustrated by what I perceived as a lack of distinctive style and voice. After a few years in London, and decades of not touching a pencil, I embarked on a creative exploration, starting with layered papercut portraits. That process gave birth to my Blue Boys series, where those scarlet lips made their first appearance.

My art continues to evolve as I explore a variety of media, but one constant remains: it is a blend of colour and whimsy, created with the intention to amuse and make people smile. What you see is what you see - no hidden messages to be found!
