Regarding the style of my graphic artwork and paintings,
I don't follow the dead end street of abstract painting.
As I am educated in the classic masters` art works
- from Greece, Middle Age to Raphael and Rubens -
I shall always portray the human being right in the
centre and the world in which we live.
Allegories of man surrounded by archetypes
of natural forms, symbols and ornaments.
