About the Work

To me, an artwork is about feelings and emotions but it must be genuine!

By genuine, I mean every single dot has been created by you. Your work represents who you are and it shows the path of your life. It has its soul and it breathes.

It starts in your heart, goes through your mind and comes out through your hand onto the blank surface of canvas. Your work reflects your feelings and thoughts, created stories, imagined characters and places, where all the magic develops.

Then you go on to the next step, working with colours, applying multiple layers of paint that blends into each other, giving you work some depth, lights, shadows.

You hold your dialogue with your created characters while the story goes on until you have something to tell. When you run out of words and you have said everything, the story is complete and so is your work.

Then you sign, date and name your newborn painting…
