Composing music
and other useless things
About
In Brief
Ultra short
Composing, for me, is a way of noticing—the small details in sound, silence, and feeling
that often go unnoticed. Painting is how I try to store light, capturing fleeting moments
and holding them still in color and texture. I follow ideas wherever they lead, moving
fluidly between music, visual art, and writing, always open to whatever medium feels right
in the moment.
My online journal, Pieces of
Self, is a welcoming space for anyone finding their way through uncertainty—a place to
share reflections, challenges, and the quiet moments that shape creative work. I hope my art
invites others to bring their own stories and interpretations, making each piece a shared
experience.
Always curious and evolving, I continue to explore, create, and connect through my
work—embracing the unknown with an open heart and a thoughtful spirit.
I compose music as a way of noticing. I paint as an attempt to store light. I follow ideas
wherever they lead, using whatever medium feels right.
Pieces of Self, my online
journal, is a welcoming space for anyone finding their way through uncertainty.
I create music and paintings to notice and hold light. I share my journey in Pieces of Self, my online journal.
