My name is Matea Gal and I have loved art all my life and can’t remember a time when it wasn’t my passion. I love painting, watercolour, drawing, pottery, alcohol inks, and trying out different mediums and styles. I constantly work on improving my style and techniques, as well as how to bring out and show emotion in my artwork. One thing I always want to bring out in my art is hope and happiness. I believe that art can speak to people, so I want mine to speak life and be encouraging. It is a dream of mine to one day have my art displayed in a gallery. I also hope to sell my artwork. Another dream I have is to paint a big mural that many people would see and be inspired by. Most of all I want my art to inspire people, to uplift them and bring encouragement.
