‘Drawing for me is a kind of meditation and an absolute necessity as a form of self-expression. I have put a lot of myself into all my works and I hope that this energy can be felt. My style is a reflection of the thoughts and feelings that excite me and my sense of colour and aesthetics. In each work I have inserted a hidden meaning, message, emotion, and the energy of the moment.
I believe that art should bring joy, evoke positive emotions and lift one’s mood. The paintings that decorate a space should, above all, be carriers of this energy and high vibration that lifts the spirit, not just a colourful decor on the wall. In my work, I strive to achieve this feeling, while at the same time using carefully selected colours in different ranges, composed in a variety of abstract or familiar shapes.
The technique I use is oil on canvas, preferring large formats, which in my opinion are more favourable for my expression and work technique. In most of my paintings, I include ethnic motifs and shapes, as well as symbols from ancient writings and Eastern cultures. The symbols are carefully selected, after a lot of research and study. Each message has a specific meaning, which gives additional strength and energy to the painting.
