about sonia
Sonia’s journey into abstract painting began during a deeply personal, painful experience, leading to turning point in her life. After years of working as a child protection officer, she stepped away from that role temporarily to reconnect with herself. In the quiet that followed, painting became her sanctuary. An intuitive, healing process that allowed her to express what words could not.
What began as a path to self-connection soon deepened into an artistic spiritual practice. Her canvas became a mirror, reflecting both pain and transformation, emotion and insight. Guided by intuition and a sense of something greater, Sonia creates work that speaks directly to your soul, from hers.
Each piece in her collection carries a quiet power; expressive and emotionally resonant. Her abstract compositions are not simply decorative; they are invitations to feel, to reflect, and to remember something essential within yourself.
Sonia’s paintings live in the space between mystical illusion and raw human emotion. They are deeply personal, yet universally felt. Designed to awaken something in the viewer, to remind them: you are seen, you are worthy, and you are not alone.
With a background in fashion design, illustration, and art history, Sonia’s creative foundation is rooted in both craftsmanship and story. Today, her work moves beyond aesthetics. It’s an offering of connection, curiosity, and inner knowing.
If one of her pieces speaks to you, trust that. The connection is no coincidence.
