Dimitri Detchev

Art is may passion and it is my intimate dialogue with the divine power of creativity and inspiration. I enjoy and explore different art medias and drawing techniques. I can take any style and theme, as a challenge, that could turn in to an exiting journey in to the infinite ocean of art.

I believe when art-critiques are labeling the style of an artist, by mentioning styles, trends, schools of teachings or famous artist, they are actually limiting his/her creative potentials and realizations. Here I will quote Buddha, who said “By naming me - you negate me”

I respect and learn from all masters in art history and present time, and I believe, that all Art is a collective, continues, multi-directional, never ending process, which makes us humans so different and unique on this planet.

The ultimate artwork for me is the life itself - on our planet. Also the beauty, which exists in any shape and form and the very possibility to observe it, capture it and live it every day.

I keep all venues of creativity open with no limitations or boundaries.
