I believe that art is a bridge between eras, as it is through artistic creations that different epochs and civilizations connect. In my paintings, I also try to reproduce the images and emotions that will pave this bridge from the present into the future.
Genre-wise, I enjoy working with abstract landscapes. I am inspired by nature in the early morning, fog over the water, calm sea, low pre-rain clouds. I prefer a restrained palette, using tones rather than bold colors. I call this combination of colors mother-of-pearl. My landscapes are minimalist but recognizable, carrying the essence of the place that inspired me to create them. Another aspect of my art lies in portraits of people and animals. Here, I allow myself to experiment with color and techniques. These paintings are mythical and each image depicted on them can be interpreted as a symbol or a sign."
