What started as a creative outlet to escape the demands of corporate life has become a full-time passion that brings me joy, balance, and a deep sense of fulfillment. With the support of my boyfriend and daughter, I built a home studio and enrolled (and graduated) in the Milan Art Institute. During my time there, I learned to combine traditional techniques with modern materials, developing a proce
ss that blends fluid inks, mixed media, and oil paints. I love hiding small messages and symbols in my work—little surprises that invite the viewer to look closer. My brand, DOTI Works, is inspired by a mantra I once shared with my daughter: Don’t Over Think It. It’s become my personal reminder to trust the process, embrace imperfection, and create from the heart. Through my art, I hope to inspire others to do the same.
