My life took a creative direction early on. I studied colour theory, design and making of visual concepts at the Technical College of Light Industry. Later as a graphic designer I started digital design.

Painting appeared in my life ten years ago with one thought: I have to paint. I wanted to smell the paint, hear the sizzle of the brush and the paint knife on the canvas. As time passed on I wanted deeper knowledge so I went to study the classical oil painting method from an authentic, experienced master.

Currently my goal in art is to find the perfect balance between classical and modern, figurative and non-figurative, conceptual and impressionism/expressionism.

A mountaineer was once asked why he was climbing that huge mountain. His answer was simply this: – Because it is there. If you ask me why I paint, my answer is simply this: – Because there is that white canvas.

My creative process always starts with a figurative concept in my head. However, when I start the actual painting, I give space to the feelings. I start with expressionist marks, with different colours on the canvas. It reflects my current mood and state at the time. For this method, I use acrylic, which allows me to work quickly and expressively. Then I start balancing, developing my theme. I do not cover the initial acrylic surface everywhere, so the viewer can see where and how the process began. I usually finish my painting with oil paint, the natural ingredients of which give life and light to my painting. I want to convey the beauty, hope and harmony of life to my audience with my work.

My days are completely occupied by creation, because I work as a graphic designer too.. My subjects are the depiction of people, animals and nature.
