Almost every artist created in his or her first years of life, completely absorbed in his or her fantasy in which everything was possible. This was also the case with me, which continued up to high school. But I didn't choose the art academy, I didn't listen to the call to continue in this, but paved the way of education and earning money, as my ancestors had also learned.

From my twenties, in addition to my office job, I traveled around the world with intense happiness, immersing myself in other countries and cultures. Capturing all that beauty on film, satisfied my creative lust in photography. It wasn't until 2004 that I picked up the oil brush for the first time. I took intensive lessons from Georgian artist Zura Kalanda for 2 years to lay a good foundation.

The years that followed, my life was in a difficult period and I put down my brushes. In 2015, I moved to the middle of the country and started a new life. When I visited a museum and saw a painting workshop there, my old passion flared up. I want to paint again! I took lessons from fine painter Peter van Oostzanen and my artist's heart started beating again.

I still travel around the world and translate my most beautiful photos into oil paintings. With my colorful art I want you to experience what joy is. There is positivity, even in a world of duality. Not everything is dark. If you look deeper, there is intense light. There is a balance between dark and light, construction and nature, black and colorful. I want you to experience this in my paintings.
