“My inspiration comes from different constance scenes and situations from the real life. My
creativity is based on a research on my memory and how snapshots shape can change
and create something new. In my works people are playing a major role. I like the moment
when the painting is changing and suddenly there is a perfect disorder and some
imaginary conversation between people. Perfect mix is achieved between nearly realistic
painted human figures and almost abstract environment.”
