"My painting is purely intuitive, flows out of me naturally and almost effortlessly.
Creative process is based on two stages. First one, when picture takes control, it becomes, leads me. Second stage, when I have to take control, organize and decide what elements of the image are the most important .I gently try to suggest, what should come through as the strongest part of the painting. I am using the strength of the composition and uncompromising colours to create an impact. Ironically, my painting is the opposite of my nature. I like peace and tranquillity
I look at some of my paintings often surprised. Sometimes I don’t know where they came from. Just like I cannot predict what will be the subject of my next work, what will trigger my imagination? It can be a group of people, a scene from the movie, old photo, or street performance. My eyes are scanning the reality up to a point when my mind reacts . Elements of what I see start to blend and mix and then, when I hit the canvas the journey begins. I allude to reality, to a lesser or greater extent, therefore my work bounces between figurative and abstract painting.
