blue wave, black shore Painting

Was born in Riga, Latvia in the late middle of the previous century. Started painting when I understood that I had no other way to talk with people around. Artworks are performed mostly with acrylic on canvas, or plastic panel, or other. Maybe some ten years ago I realised that photography isn't the worst way to talk with folks either, and it's a good helping tool in fine art painting, as well as large format printing. * * * * * * * * * * * * * * I believe all this now has become as another - contemporary - kind of pencil or brush. Now, mixing it altogether is my basic way and language in art to talk with you.* * * * * * * * If someone doesn't understand - sorry about that. * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * But it surely doesn’t mean that I’m not using traditional methods in my works, too (‘Waterville-Somewhere Over’, ‘Early Silence’ and others which you can check out on my website: daknisart at gmail dot com). * * * * * Special thanks, every day and always /in random order/ to: boldrick, u2, rhcp, kilgore trout, my son martin, astrid lindgren, sixth sense, kurt vonnegut, piglet, tim booth, mr. sander, my wife rita, kurt cobain, whistler's mother, three men in a boat, salvador dali, alan milne, forrest gump, guy ritchie, onslow, blackadder.* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * And Jesus Christ Every Day.* * * * * * * * * * Also, I must end with, "I asked Mark a while back what life was all about since I didn't have a clue. He said, ‘Dad, we're here to help each other get through this thing, whatever it is. Whatever it is. Whatever it is! Not bad.’" /Vonnegut's last speech/
