About Me
I am first a artist I paint or draw everyday. I have a studio where I can paint in the morning and then leave it in the afternoon to recharge for the next day. I used to be a writer, that's why the interest in words. An introvert, I need to go to my cave after being outside in the world.Color and words have always been my main staples.
