What is your background and how did you start your journey in the art world?

At that time it was regular pencil drawing, no computer. Then, as times flied, and opened for myself photography, and later also Computer Graphics. Since school time I liked Technical Drawing and Descriptive Geometry, and I still like it, just now I am using more Computers drawing programs (Adobe Soft, AutoCAD). Last year I opened for myself also AI technology, it's amazing. I like combine new tech with old-fashion , that gives birth to unusual creative art projects. For years, I had created art just for fun, without any real intention of sharing it with the world. Then, as I became more familiar with the world of digital art, I began to share my creations with family and friends, their positive reactions helped me to realized that I had something special to offer That gave me the confidence to take the next step and start sharing my artwork with a wider audience.

So, I do not know if Global Apocalypses, that we have heard so often our scientists are warning us about, is social or political issue, but I want to see Humanity living together in brotherhood love to each other and taking care of one another, with harmony and balance between "darkness and light".”

What does your art mean to you?
“My art makes me needed. I feel that I finally found how I can be useful for society, through my digital artwork. This was big question and straggling for me since I was teen: what I should do to be useful to the people around me. I believe Nature (or Creator) gave each of us something unique that society needs, and we need to share this talent to others. Through my digital creations I would like to bring to each of viewers and collectors of my art, filling of harmony, balance between "darkness and light", and speed up time of Harmony World, that approaching to us. I believe, Art can stimulate various emotions within individuals, leading to a sense of self-gratification akin to the feeling of being in love. The act of observing exceptional artwork impacts the same neural pathways responsible for the experience of falling in love, generating a sense of fondness and attraction that releases dopamine into the body. As a result, viewing art is an enjoyable and satisfying encounter that can enhance an individual's overall quality of life. I want to share my belief to the people and inspire them to create harmony around them. Because this is in our hands.”
