I believe that art is a form of energy and the artist’s role is to materialize this energy, to give it shape. It’s a kind of a stream of information that passes through the artist as if through a portal. When the portal is open for me, I start to create. The information flows, time is not enough, and I often paint several pictures simultaneously.
Throughout the years, I have gained experience that helps me recognize in which particular moments it is important to create. I never force the moment or the nature of the process. I let the pictures happen and resonate. Most of my paintings are abstract and when I work I aim to combine colours and nuances which "love each other" in such a way that the painting would echo beautifully.
I perceive myself as a musician. I strive to create music for the eyes. I am often asked whether the artist or the sculptor in me prevails. It usually turns out that after a long period of painting I start to feel depleted and at that point I know that it’s time to create a sculpture.
These cycles have been repeating for all my life. As for sculptures I avoid concrete anatomical forms in order to reinforce the emotions and mood which the figure should emanate. My desire is for my audience to feel the positive energies and emotions in my paintings and to feel entertained, as I was feeling when I was painting them.
