| Frankly, I still don't know my place in the bunch of my contemporaries,
don't know am I a toil artist, am I artisan or professional one. Do I look
integrated in current art events or showing eclectic art pieces?
Even if I will sell only one art piece per year, I would follow doing this.
I am aware of scoping my experience in the past and technical ability developed,
I would better say, that starting new art piece I am faced with the theme
chosen and material taken as it was the very first time.
In the moment I start, I am free of any assumptions from the art history, thinking only about how innovative I would be in this artpiece. I am not trying to integrate it (periods, styles, techniques, whatsoever) intentionally, but reflecting the condition of my being. One of them is watercolor "Wine" 1996 77 cm x 52 cm (30.8 inch x 20.8 inch). Translucent forms of floral elements on the black background are painted
for achieving more drama in a simple way and must contradict to the tenderness
of green leaves around the rose. Leafe green and sienna black (yellowish
brown + total black) were chosen for colorful expression and demonstrates
opaque glass approach for modeling light and shade.
