Get out of my way Painting

I was born 1968 in Carlsbad, a world known spa in western Bohemia, former Czechoslovakia. Studying in zoology, as I wanted to do was almost impossible in that time of communists government. So I began to paint the objects of my interest, at least. I had dreamed about journeys to Africa with brush and easel and a 150 thousand lions lived there, in the late seventies. In 1993 I had met a German graphic artist and painter who became my tutor. In this period the west african lions got almost extinct. Since 2005 I make a living as a wildlife painter. Just as few as 20 K lions survived over my short personal history.
