ARTIST STATEMENT:
In my vision, art represents salvation from life’s troubles and afflictions, as well as my own personal way of establishing myself and evolving as a human being. The main thing I approach, noticeable from some of the titles of my works: “A Momentary Lapse of Reason”, “When the Wind Blows”, “Catch Me if You Can”, and the newest: “The Realm of the Ancient Marina” and “Light Side of Life”, can describe, in a metaphorical way, my state of mind when I am creating. The idea of transforming life’s routine in a moment of creative bewilderment, is my life cradle.
