Artist Statement

"My genre is portraits realistic style and also animals.
I use Aqua pencils or Oil colors. I always searching for the soul in a portrait...I paint from photos and very often I have 2 or 3 different pictures so I can catch the personality and not just paint a copy of a photo...

I have no special artist I am influenced by. I can get ideas when i read about some artists and looking at their paintings."
