 Artistic thoughts behind this artwork:

Featuring Mickey Mouse in a playful hand stand, his iconic ears pointing skyward, as if daring the world to see things from a different perspective. The vintage style of the artwork infuses it with a timeless charm, reminiscent of the golden age of animation. Bold colors capture the essence of the pop art movement, giving the piece a lively energy that draws the viewer in.
Beside Mickey, a quote in bold, retro lettering reads: "Reset. Restart. Refocus. But don't you dare to give up your dreams!" These words are urging us to embrace change, persevere through challenges, and never lose sight of our aspirations.

My work lives at the intersection of bold pop culture and personal reflection. Through layered textures, iconic characters, and unexpected juxtapositions, I explore the contradictions of modern life — glamour and grit, success and satire, chaos and clarity. Much of my work reimagines familiar faces — from cartoon legends to luxury icons — not to glorify them, but to question them, twist them, and ultimately make them my own. Characters like Mr. Monopoly, Bugs Bunny, or Homer Simpson become vessels to talk about ambition, abundance, and the absurdity of our times. It’s all pop — but it’s also deeply personal.

At the heart of it, I believe in art as transformation. I believe in creativity not just as a medium, but as a way of life — to shift perspective, to provoke thought, and to connect.
