ARTIST SAID:

"When I am painting I am inspired by simple and beauty of nature with the beautiful colored forest, the valley with different flowers. The blue and silver ocean. The air that you can feel it when it is touching you and murmuring melodies in your ear like a fresh rainy day. You can also see the clouds dancing in the sky as well as listening to the winds musical rhythms.

My goal is to attempt to express something more than the landscape or seascape.  I want to express freedom, peace, serenity and my memories  of those simple and traditional things.  In my paintings you can find shapes, colors and moments of weather and drama. 

" It is my hope that the viewer will be transported there with my paintings."
