I usually work with oil colors on canvas. It is my preferred technique. I also prefer acrylic to work with on canvas or boards. I work with rapidograph on paper or pencil drawings. Sometimes I use pastels and watercolors. I base my inspiration on tradition and contemporary art.I mix it with the daily life.In my paintings I always look for creating and developing new art finding new ways and spaces. I am always developing new forms and shapes of art using my colors.
