Two Worlds Painting

Born in Varna (Bulgaria) 1964. 1984 - 88 Artistic School "Union of Bulgarian Artists" in Varna (Bulgaria). 1989, Immigration to Germany. 1989 - 90 Study of Modern Art - Tuebingen, Germany. 1992 - 94 Specializing to Etchings in Stoimen Stoilovs Studio in Vienna. 2008 Certificate of Excellence, Palm Art Award,Leipzig. My artistic expression: "SPACE, SHAPE and COLOUR". The main expression forms in my works are the lines and the colors. With the line I don't define only the form, but express also their psychology, that says, I am giving it a spiritual volume. The lines in combination with the colours produce a feeling for space and motion in my pictures (canvas, water-colours and etchings), and are also the expression of my artistic sentimentality. I admire the principle of the renaissance painting and the frescos (expressing space and shape with lines and colours), and try as artist to transfer this in my pictures by a modern way. The painting is abstract, effected by the expand of the imagination and at the same time concrete, expression of the real world, surrounding us.The pictures stands outside of space and time. The surrealistic moments are also obvious, as many themes are descended of the world of imagination and dreams.Sometimes the pictures tell one or more stories and another time the pictures will be assimiliated by the suggestion of the spectator.
