During my career, there were many periods I went through which I now call experimental periods. As any beginner would do, during the first phase, I worked in realism. During the studies, I’ve went through many different phases, e.g.: the phase of warm colours, the brown phase, the white and black phase, which I consider to be the most successful experimental phase of mine with “The Conductor” and “The Violinist” as the most successful works of the phase. Afterwards, I went through the expressive phase (I call it this because it was when expressionist painters indirectly influenced my work). My most successful works of the expressive phase are “Loser” and “The Opera Woman”. Then there was the phase when I got my inspiration from around-the-world painters, but always keeping my original style undamaged. The most successful painting of this phase were “Professor G.” and “Portrait #1”. Then I went through a couple of phases that I cannot differentiate nor isolate.
Sometime during the experimental phase, the painted canvases began in a discrete way to show more blue colour in them. It was then, when my blue phase began. During this time I worked on the cycle “The Forgotten Man”. This was the period of the cold colour, as for now I am going through a phase where the warm colour nuances are driven into canvases where the blue colour nuances dominate.
The motive in my work throughout my career has remained the same. The human’s psychological moment, his state of mind and the range of feelings in a moment were and still are things that preoccupy my mind. The human being is the motive I chose for my paintings, because through it I could analyse feelings and express all kinds of dilemmas that always went through my mind. I try to take something from the everyday life and give it a figurative meaning. Every human has its story. Its story is the everyday life, the dream, the fantasy, the moment… It is a soundless war between fantasy and everyday life. This human being stands stretched down, standing up, near the window, leaning on its arms, leaning on its dreams, behind the curtain, behind its life.
I try to express my inner space with the help of few drawn lines, which I consider to be nobody else’s but mine."
