I have mixed feelings about everything right now. My vision of the world has changed dramatically over the past years. I have changed. One moment my soul is tearing into parts; another moment I am trying to find peace within myself. I start to question everything. I question myself. After this long and tough process the new truth is being born; the new me is being born.

My major life attraction is art in its rich diversity: stained glass painting, oil and acrylic painting, photography.

Art for me is the way to put questions to myself and the world and to find answers. Art reveals the depths of the world around me and inside me, and it is a real miracle. I am constantly experimenting, trying something new, because I am sincerely convinced that art is everywhere. This search inspires me to share my passion. Art not only gives more opportunities to enjoy life, but also to formulate my opinion, to be heard, to provoke others to think.
