In painting I am most interested in man, but also nature and other subjects are close to me.
I practice oil painting, acrylic painting and watercolor.
My painting is based on realism, hyperrealism, surrealism and symbolism. Symbolism, in particular, is very close to my heart, as a result, every painting I create tells a story and talks about something, and no element on the canvas is a coincidence.
I also try not to give up on the images that often appear to me in the phase of half-sleep - they are often snapshots like pieces of a jigsaw puzzle, which I then try to put together or a source of inspiration to create another painting. In this way I can bring the viewer into the depths of fantastic, surreal, fairy-tale worlds, not devoid of a symbolic layer, where everything is possible, and the only limit, is the limit of our imagination.
