   During my travels I started to feel a really strong need to express all the magnificent aesthetics my eyes were lucky enough to capture. I was almost itching. I worked a lot with pencil, aquarell, pastel, gauche and acrylic during my school years, but this time I wanted to do something different. This was this the point I went to buy my fist canvas. I thought I’m making the piece for my own walls but just 6 months later a business parter of my convinced to sell it to him after discovering the painting on social media. I believe in quality and I believe in slow process. when I do a piece it usually takes 3-9 months to let it go. My art practice is all about to bring long lasting pleasure to the eyes by not compromising at all when it comes to time, quality and quantity about materials used. I strictly paint with oil and when I use gold I use only 24k gold. This might be the reason that the first 5 years of my art practise an  international bouquet of collerctors bought all my works without any gallery or art dealer involved. I use simple brushstrokes but I like to create multiple layers of different blacks and different whites within one painting. These hidden stories making the viewer able to find something new in my paintings even years after purchase. When I add colours it's all about finding a sophisticated harmony with visual weights even on those pieces which look harsh for the first glance. My paintings are offering a personal and unique experience to the viewer based on the individual's current mood, personal history and beliefs.
