Labels: new year, resolution

My art is instinctive, expressive and reflective of my soul. It feels for me, it thinks for me, it moves for me, it speaks for me. I paint to influence, to move, to feel and to express my feelings.

The emotions are sometimes so strong that I work without knowing it. The strokes come like speech.*Vincent van Gogh

The only time I feel alive is when I'm painting.*Vincent can Gogh

My name is Sylvia. I'm 19 years old. I go where my hearts leads me to, and at this moment, it's beating for arts. It allows me to learn, to see, to explore, to discover things about the world, and about me. I wish to live my life well and to be able to express my voice in all possible forms. more?
