Hippie - Limited Edition 1 of 1 Print

I paint because I must be surrounded by beautiful objects, vibrant colors, and imaginative landscapes. I believe that various shades of color and interactions between different hues produce emotional responses and have the power to heal, to calm, to energize, and to inspire. I want to share these discoveries with my audience. I always liked the color combinations of Kandinsky. I have seen many of his works reproduced in art books. Then one day I saw his paintings at the Guggenheim Museum in New York. His juxtaposition of orange against purple was so intense, no laser printer could reproduce it. And there I was, experiencing the energy in person. I wept - from happiness. I was born and raised in Bulgaria. I was drawn to various art forms since childhood and my formative years were spent studying classical music and flute performance. Early 90s brought me to the United States and opened my eyes to the possibilities I have never considered before. I create my pieces in a very intuitive and introspective way. I don't like to limit myself to any particular format, technique, or current trends in the world of art. I use various media and techniques. I like graphic, etching, monotype, watercolors, acrylics, charcoals, pencils. I am fascinated by color and texture, freedom and whimsicality, but also by order and classic geometry. In addition to creating visual art, I also compose music, play the flute, and write short stories and poetry. My studio is located in Bolkan Montains Bulgaria.
