Dragan Kunić was born on April 1, 1955 in Posusje near Mostar, Bosnia and Herzegovina, where he went to elementary school and graduated from high school. In 1977 Dragan graduated from the Faculty of Law in Mostar. He is now living and working in Belgrade, Republic of Serbia. He showed interest and love for painting as a child. Also, Dragan expressed his creativity through Rock n Roll music, as frontman of rock band in Mostar in the 70s. Although fond of art, traditional upbringing led him to the legal profession. The need for creative research leads him to self-study of painting and researching the origins of painting. In 1979, he began to take painting seriously. Through intensive association with Mostar painters, he develops his personal painting style. He realizes early on that painting is an endless horizon, and that, there is a place for everyone who has the need and desire to express himself in painting. That is the secret of his painting - the endless possibilities. Artistic freedom characterizes his approach in painting, because he never wanted to be a slave to any form, style, or any other boundaries. His understanding of freedom has no limits, because he paints how he feels. Expressionism with elements of impressionism and abstraction in some paintings, supports sensibility and bears the stamp of his personality, while the strong color represents land and sky of Mediterranean Herzegovina. He transposes into his artistic reality everything he wants, using techniques that sometimes seem controversial.
