“My paintings are dominated by fantastic themes, figurativism, urban motifs, motifs from nature and more. I like to create both abstractions and thematic paintings. In my creative process, I sometimes intuitively give in to the brush and sometimes I combine conscious and unconscious brush dance. The search for creativity is accompanied by a constant desire to improve, search and find. Find a form of expression for your worldview. In painting, I strive to reveal a distinctive coloring, and I seek my style by combining different painting manners: the sphumato technique intertwines with strokes resembling impressionist painting manners. My painting is sometimes very dynamic, expressive strokes predominate, and sometimes it is very gentle, plastic, philosophical and lyrical. I strive for the painting to have its secret, so that the painting can not only give the home cosiness, but also expand and enrich the space at the heart of the idea. My goal is to paint, because the process itself is the most interesting, and if I’m still interested, then I’m happy. I enjoy the opportunity to exhibit my works because I love people and want to share their creations with others. ”
