About Me

Painting is a lonely work, but it suits me fine, i..m a quiet person. I..m happy at home, with my dear cat, and my paintings.I had a long break in my career. My last exhibition was over a decade ago, and i haven..t touch my brushes and colours since.Until last year i started to work again.I don..t want to show pics of my old work, i want to leave them behind, mostly because they are so different from the ones i..m doing now. And the new paintings are still under work, so i can..t display anything yet. Soon... ...i..m working.
