"Painting is a language that can communicate emotions and feelings way better than any language in the world."

With my art, I'm trying to find beauty in everyday things. So would it be a still-life or a landscape or anything else, whatever? I have tons of ideas, and new ones come to me daily. I love the whole way of creation, although it's not linear. It all excites me: from idea, through research and spectating things around, making sketches and finding the right colours, until the last moment when I put my signature to my painting.

I have been a painter for as long as I remember myself: with pencils, chalks and watercolours, or just a stick on sand. I am always hungry to create more, experimenting and finding new genres and styles that help me share my emotions and feelings. Many years ago, I fell in love with plastic and the magic of colours of oil that perfectly live on canvas. And I believe this love is mutual.

My paintings are in private collections all around the globe.
