WOMAN is my main and preferred topic. In my paintings I am trying to capture the complex nature of women: powerfulness, weakness, sensitivity, different ways of perceiving the world.
My women are connected always to nature in some way. „Gaya” - mother nature, „Moonlight”- moon, „Empress” - flowers...

My women are connected always to nature in some way. „Gaya” - mother nature, „Moonlight”- moon, „Empress” - flowers and parrot, „Don't let me sleep” - magic flower, „Something fishy” - fishes, „Lady Aqua” - water, „Distraction” - birds etc
I believe my artworks are showing my state of mind, heart and emotions.

On Academy I was doing many landscapes, still life s, horses or architecture. And I am also giving that kind of works for for my students. Coz its teaching them observation, proportions etc
Now I am trying to focus on my inside and give my emotions and thoughts a real being.

I use Acrylics when I have more power and better mood. When I want to paint fast without much details or thinking. They include structural pastes and they are combination of figurative fast painting. Some with explosion of strong colors which are nothing like cosmic space. I really like splashing at the end and my favorite add is sponge which is giving nice effects.

OIL painting is for relaxing days. Oils are more detailed and subdued in colors and focused on figures. I love to spent time painting one part with patience until I will got effect I want. Here I am more focused and there is no space for improvisation like in acrylic.
