“My influences come first and foremost from everything I see, feel and experience in life, however, I have always been inspired by remarkable work of the well-known artists of the past and contemporary art world. Most of my subject matter is focused on the transformation of human nature through my own fantasy and depicted as imaginary characters and objects. Consciously employing both traditional and innovative techniques, my unconscious always rules in my eternal art world.”
