Artistic Journey
A journalist by profession, Mothy brings a storyteller’s depth and sensitivity into her art.

Artist Statement
“For me, painting is a dialogue — a conversation between the human spirit and the elements of nature. Every canvas is an attempt to listen, to feel, and to translate that silent exchange into color and movement. My abstractions are reflections of that connection — fluid, organic, and deeply personal.”
