Why the landscapes are special to me

When I observe the land itself, the first thing that happens is that it evokes a feeling or mood in me. A while later I slowly start to explore colors, structures and other details in general. And this very first notion is what interests me the most; trying to capture the vitality and rich diversity of the scenery while concentrating on the emotional context which is crucial for me.

I prefer to work using a "loose style" with many abstract forms, which I love, tryingto find a balance between what is abstract and what is real.

This form of expression is very energetic and often makes me push the envelopea bit further. At this point I need some courage because beyond this border startsan unknown territory and since I'm not just relying on the knowledge I've gatheredover time anymore, I never know what might surprise me. It's like being on the edge. Sometimes I fall and other times new, unexpected possibilities of expression and technique become available to me. This is the way I can improve, being constantlyon the edge, where the process of thinking temporarily stops and spontaneity comesin instead. If I manage to maintain this fragile balance, a work of art is created.

Experience slowly teaches me that it's better not to think too much but to trust yourintuition instead. Having the courage to leave the safe but often boring road and "stay alive" is what matters to me.

I also make an extra effort to remain constantly open to new possibilities and innovativeways and, if possible, not to remain at the same stage all the time. In this way I give new creative processes the opportunityto carry me forward.
