Entering VALHALLA

Concept

Born in Constanta, Romania I have been close to art since very young. After few participation in art project mentored by a teacher I had drifted away from painting for a decade only to realize something was missing from my life; the most important thing; ART. Therefore I decided to join the Art University in my city. There I will learn in more detail the study of landscapes and human body. After few years I graduated and gone forward for a master degree in Art. Along the journey I have learn many things but I will discover my style later in life.

The Style
The viewer is invited to make a step into the unknown, distant solar systems, planets and unexplored places. An imaginary world, blooming from the mind of the artist onto the canvas. That is what the story tells, a space journey inspired by the Sci-fi world of Asimov or C. Sagan.
The technique is based on different styles of landscaping, modern techniques are integrated to give the viewer a feeling of wonder.
On the other hand the abstracts are an intrusion into the mind of the viewer. Explosions of colors, fast color bursts and many layers of colors. You can almost feel the ‘’fight’’ that has taken place. But in all that chaos there is still a type of order. Just like in the Universe itself but this time it is a journey into your mind.



Why do I paint?
If I can make a person drift away in to the Cosmos for only just a minute, far away from the life we live and its construct then I have secretly succeeded. Or maybe you want to ask deeper question, for that you will have to dive into the blaze of my abstraction.
