Hello, my name is Dian Petrov . I was born on 11 December 1984 in Strahilovo, a small village north from Veliko Turnovo. Now I’m living in Veliko Turnovo , Bulgaria. I work mainly in the sphere of the art of painting, characterized by my own style of painting. I define myself as an analyser, voyeur of every single landscape, occurrence or idea. There is always a part of something extraordinary and mysterious in my paintings. My canvases create a new feeling of space, direction and colour ; of exterior, escalators, faces, people and landscapes. The composition and the vivid colours show the spectator's imagination a different direction. I get inspired with the constant and chaotic movement of the people, with the perpetual rambling and haste to some abandoned buildings and strange places. It is interesting to see all kinds of people, wearing strange clothes and coming from all over the world. The social theme is not unfamiliar to me .My original style is influenced by the folklore traditions and by the iconography. The purpose of my works of art is to make the viewer think - What can be seen ? - the difference or the identity with reality! This is why I depict a painting within a painting. One painting should not be just a decoration, although this is one of its basic purposes. It should create a certain atmosphere and arouse your imagination.
