Biography
I am a professional artist, my whole life, since childhood, is connected
with the contemplation and creation of beauty. Travelling a lot around the
world, I observe and admire the works of the God, the harmony he created in
nature. By means of painting, with the help of paints, I try to convey all this
in my paintings and share the received emotions with my viewers. On my return
from the distant places, the sketches done from nature
inspire me to work in the studio, while the elusive image of what I saw remains
in my memory, helping to reflect the essence of the impressions I experienced.
I believe that as often as possible, the artist needs to leave the boundaries
of the familiar landscape, and discover unknown spaces, find new sources of
emotions that refresh the senses, enrich the painting. Nature is multi-faceted,
changeable, elusive, exists according to its own laws and it is impossible to
simply take and copy it. It plays with you, the sun's glare, the rustle of
leaves, the clouds that are always an enigma.
