Statement

"I paint to see better"

For me, painting is a way to really see the world.To see it better, to see it more accurately.To convey to you how I see it.Painting force me to observe deeply and make decisions about how I will describe the many details I observe.I find joy in reality, so I tick with classic principles of painting ,such as the importance of color and value.

Even I do not paint in a formulaic manner changing only the subject I  paint why? Because I approach each painting by asking : how  can I  best paint this scene?.Then I explore option. For a somewhat realistic painter  like me, this is an important aspect of the creative process, and my choices  as I paint can vary widely.

For each painting, I work to convey a separate feeling using a separate approach, one painting might have smooth, simple areas  of restful color, in  another dynamic energetic marks puntuate the surface, I do each painting deliberately differently.I hope successfully to convey my vision of the scene to you.
