“Crossfaded anatomy” stands as a leap in my art career, as it was an experimental project, where I used new techniques in charcoal art. This piece is a composition of a male upper body in two different positions, two consecutive moments but integrated into one single drawing. This artwork playfully represents the fleeting moment, and the power of the present.
Media: acryl and watercolour on wall (secco)

Clock tree is a mysterious creature, painted on a wall. My original plan was to create a wall clock, through hand-painting a unique dial. I designed a circular composition that depicts a large old tree. The sizable hollow in the centre supposed to disguise the chamber for the clock-mechanism. I hid some actual digits (3; 6; 9) in the branches and roots, and only indicated the rest of them at their geometrically adequate places.
. . .BUT as the working process advanced, I fell in love with this artwork - and would have felt very sad to make any physical damage via cutting a chamber for the mechanism. Therefore, I changed my mind, and my beloved art piece remained just a lovely painting.

Title: Hand
Media: watercolor, charcoal, pastel on fiberboard
This artwork was an odd project. It started as a practice, aiming to sketch my own hand on a fibreboard. During the joyful practice I felt like the graphite pencil sketch is not enough. I wanted to go with the flow, so I grabbed my charcoals, pastels, more pencils, and watercolours, and started to build up this piece and depict my imagination.
In this close-up we can see some areas marked with green, showing the difference between finished and sketchy surfaces.

When the parents of this baby commissioned a portrait of their daughter, I faced a new experience: to create and ship an artwork abroad.
Drawing baby portraits are not easy, so I had to execute the task using my finest style. I created extremely soft edges and surfaces and, aimed for the most accurate portrait possible.
After finishing the artwork, I felt that success and good feedback would be inevitable.
Details with blurred edges, without contours or outlines. Letting the fibers of the paper create a vibrant ambience makes the surface feel organic and authentic.

This artwork was commissioned by my friend who is a singer, as a gift to his vocal coach. It’s supposed to help her to demonstrate to her pupils the use of their vocal tracts. I think my approach was a little too anatomic and biological. On the top of that, some organs are out of proportion. However, I loved the achievement I made in my anatomic research during the preparations. I’ve always been fascinated by anatomy, especially to integrate this beautiful science into my art.
