Miks Valdbergs

Illustrator, painter, artist.
Born in 1954. Studied at the J. Rozentals Riga Art School.
Worked in the field of graphic design with advertising agencies.
Since 1994, I have been working in book publishing house. Author and illustrator of around 40 printed and digital books. After retiring a few years ago, I turned to oil painting.
The works have entered in private collections in Latvia and abroad.

Unspoiled nature has always suggested. Sunbeams through the foliage, reflections in the water, the magic of changing seasons.
When painting, I get pleasure from the opportunity to depict what I see, what I understand. To see the main, most important thing in the chaos of details. I am learning to understand regularities, universal laws that also work in everyday life. Painting is essential part of my life.
