Once I have found the thick sheet of metal. Very old. I had had at once an idea to make an armor of it. So the turtle was born. From a thick piece of metal and fire. Completely handwork. Eyes are made of glass. In one copy.

My work develops all the time, but focuses on what attracts me. Whether it's realistic views of the world around us or fabulous, mystical characters. The process of working with steel is not planned, but rather intuitive; the result comes from imagination, shape, structure, and colouring. I don't follow templates, but if necessary, I use all the metal working techniques I know. To get from an inanimate piece of iron by fire and hammer, forge, close to the natural plasticity and beauty of harmonious products. I do not copy the nature, but I try to focus on what is fused in the soul, what I want to share. My work is a journey, my goal is to inspire, to cause a reaction for which sometimes no explanation is needed.
