My paintings combine figurative and abstract painting. I want it to
be read like that. I require more effort and commitment from the
viewer of my paintings - to pay attention not only to the composition,
form, penetration of the planes of color, brightness and light. Light
is reflected differently from a flat surface and different from a thick
texture. Additional impressions are caused by transparent textures.
I want my paintings to have a sensual and emotional effect, not
necessarily because of the content but more because of the diversity
of their surface. Penetration of textures, colors and light - as in life
- the permeation of feelings: love in sadness, sadness in reflection,
reflection in expectation. Expectation for love. This painting requires a
lot of emotional engagement, to sense the transience of the moment.
