Sunset Swimmer, 2019
(50x70cm, oil on canvas)
Sunset Swimmer came from a moment of complete immersion — when light softens, shadows dissolve, and the body moves in rhythm with the water. I was drawn less to the figure itself and more to that fleeting state of presence, when swimming becomes a quiet dialogue between light, surface, and breath.
Dream in B(lue) Minor, 2020
(50x70cm, oil on canvas)
Dream in B(lue) Minor took shape as an attempt to paint what usually slips away. The image remains intentionally unfocused, suspended in blue, where figures appear only as traces. It speaks about the aftertaste of dreams — charged, intimate, and unresolved, echoing the emotional tension of a minor key, as in Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky’s music.
Fireworks Out of Joint, 2018
(50x70cm, oil on canvas)
Fireworks out of Joint was painted as a response to fractured perception and sudden rupture. Color and gesture collide, erupting without a fixed center, as if reality momentarily slips out of alignment. The reference to Philip K. Dick reflects this interest in instability — moments when order dissolves and meaning splinters into sensation.
Genesis – The Birth of Minotaur, 2018
(80x80cm, acrylic on canvas)
This is a special piece to me that grew from an interest in origins — violent, unstable, and only partially visible. Although painted in acrylic, I worked the surface with water, allowing the pigment to flow and erode like watercolor. This process let chance and control coexist, as if the image were being washed into existence rather than constructed, leaving the Minotaur as a presence emerging from myth and matter.
Genesis – The Dream of Zeus, 2018
(60x60cm, acrylic on canvas)
I was experimenting pouring as well. I know there are voices against this techniques, but this piece treats creation as an act marked by rupture. The surface is first allowed to flow, then deliberately cut, turning the canvas itself into a site of tension. A red trace lingers near the fracture, a watching presence within the chaos — as if Zeus were imagining the world through both destruction and renewal.
Sunset in the Bay, 2016
(20 x 30cm, oil on canvas)
The piece lingers on a moment of stillness, when light softens both sea and stone. I was drawn to the quiet balance between the solidity of the fortress and the openness of the water, letting color and loose brushwork carry the sense of calm that settles just before night.
Hyde & Seek, 2025 (SOLD)
(70x140cm, acrylic on canvas)
The holidays always take me back to childhood, and childhood always holds a place for play. This time I chose “Hide and Seek.” Nostalgia carried me back to the way the world used to open differently, unpredictably, with every step.
The rest I leave to the viewer: you may search, discover, or simply smile at the thought that sometimes even colors prefer to hide.
And if you wish, consider it a small gift for St. Nicholas.
