Drawing

My original graphics are not just a technique but a way of life where I find comfort and freedom to express my thoughts. After numerous experiments with various methods, I discovered the technique that allows my ideas to become cohesive and alive. It is here, at the intersection of pen, brush, and ink, that works filled with deep emotion and personal meaning are born.

The creation of a new piece begins with pouring ink onto a chosen material. At this initial stage, I already sense the image I wish to see, which becomes the starting point for further experimentation. Sometimes I continue working with a brush, sometimes with paper upon paper, and the pen serves as the final touch.

The portraits in my graphics often emerge spontaneously, emphasizing character and presentation style. Compositions, on the other hand, are crafted with more deliberation, ensuring that each element works in harmony and reflects the complex palette of human emotions and experiences.

Masks of Reflection

Masks

In my artwork, masks hold a special significance. They are not merely decorative elements but vivid embodiments of emotions and moods, coming to life on paper through the application of black and white ink. The mask of contemplation conveys a profound sense of inner depth, while the mask of sorrow delicately captures the fragile boundary between sadness and tranquility. Other mask representations reveal various states of the soul.
I predominantly work with a brush and black ink on white paper, creating a striking contrast that serves as the starting point of my creative journey. This interplay of black and white is not just a technique but a means to express the inception of each narrative, with every line setting the tone for subsequent strokes. The theater, as a source of inspiration, plays a crucial role in shaping my imagery, helping the masks attain individuality and character.
