"Spirits of the Ancestors"

Concept

I'm an artist who draws a fairy tale through the images of animals. I'm looking for living emotion in my characters. I live in the paintings a personal experience of knowing the world and relationships through animals, the experience of friendship, trust and loss.
My works are like dreams woven from patterns and images. I combine reality and subtle worlds in my stories that I live myself. A feature of my work for many years has been a pattern that, like a language unknown to me, tells about events and emotions. This pattern is woven into realistic images with gold thread.

I work with acrylics, oils, inks, pastels, watercolors and often I mix these media and find something new in these combinations. As if I open paths between different worlds and connect them.

One of the main themes was the theme of death as a line through which I walk in my work. Not as something terrible and painful, but as a stage of life and living it.

My characters often live their own lives and our story with them takes place from the moment the picture begins, when they, showing their character and mood, choose what they are ready to tell the viewer.
