This digital painting is a unique and original work belonging to a series of digital works of art that I created, with the central theme "Emotions."

My work often explores issues based on a personal experience and the daily challenges that occupy me, creating a state of emotional, systematic, and spontaneous emotions where I am somewhat connected. Emotional reactions are often seen as the cornerstone of the art experience, and creating an emotional experience is aimed at my artistic expression. I let the spectators interpret the art through their emotions.

I have always been troubled by how people around me react to situations and the feelings they hide behind every action they take. I learned not to judge people by their external image through life because we conceal our magic of not always visible emotions. I have become challenging and fearless in situations that affect me emotionally, hiding my true feelings in recent years.

I want through my art to freely convey what I feel and experience in my life, through the simplicity of the colors I use, the objects, and the attitude of the female figure that I present in my art "Dauntless." Beyond the external image we see in people, there is the magic of power, of the fearless man that we should never underestimate.

I try to establish a situation of a woman who is not afraid. I avoid defining in advance the true meaning of the messages I want to send through my work and let the viewer travel through the art. Freedom of thought is a key feature of my work. I try to make the viewer understand the meaning with his perception and way of thinking. The messages for each, however, may be different.

Evolution is my primary goal. It's something I demand of myself and my job. In recent years my works have been created spontaneously. At first, I did not realize it, but in the process, looking at them as a whole, I can say that indeed, there is an explosion of imagination.

By looking closely at my art, you can discover details. Looking at the whole work of art from afar each time, you can feel all its power. Surfaces, lighting, and shadows determine the appearance of the messages in terms of the final result. I promote an alternative, dynamic approach and argue that the aesthetic experience is institutionalized and skillful, based on recognizing the experiences of others as different from my own. I intend to completely blur the line between a work of art and a viewer, leading to a state of heightened sensitivity. The Parrot I use in my art accurately represents my authentic self. I want to convey my mirror and the power of silence through my work.

ARTIST STATEMENT

My art is a form of expression and an extension of my personality. My creative mind never stops, and everything around me is an inspiration for my work, even the most minor and insignificant things in life. I started doing art at a very young age. For me, art becomes a source of search, processing, and ultimately peace with various experiences. Sometimes I draw figures, faces, and things in which I find something profound. I like to capture a moment and put it in a work of art. What I like most about the design is the emotions. I love when I see something shaking in someone's eyes and face, something just below the surface, and I can capture it with my drawing. I want to inspire people with works of art that focus on the resilience, strength, and connection of the human spirit and emotions.

Although family and work commitments prevailed, I continued my passion for art in my spare time. I am an incredibly compassionate person, and in many ways, I put myself wholeheartedly into every work of art. I never focus on specific art styles and themes, as I do not want to be framed in a particular technique and be more faithful to my emotions and imagination. Different media always allow me to express other ideas, and during the research, new areas of interest emerge and lead to my subsequent work. Sometimes I even use themes that will satisfy my obsession with colors and imagination. In a way, I communicate with this elusive sense of absolute joy in my art, and every time I feel happy in my life, I create art with colors and full of fantastic images and objects.

I always find beauty in bad things and try to transfer them to powerful and unique works of art. My work has been constantly rooted in the many personal emotions, moments, and things I have drawn from life for the past fifteen years. Evolution is my primary goal. It's something I demand of myself and my job. In recent years my works have been created spontaneously. At first, I did not realize it, but in the process, looking at them as a whole, I can say that indeed, there is an explosion of imagination. I avoid pre-defining the true meaning of the messages I send through my work and letting the viewer travel through my art. Although there may not always be similarities in subject matter, they are associated with a wealth of imagination and perfectionist detail, and my philosophy is consistent. Each work consists of different concepts, and "Communication" with my audience is what I have in mind when I paint. I never have hidden messages, and I like when viewers express different emotional reactions and perceptions about each of my works. Freedom of thought is a crucial feature of my work. I try to make the viewer perceive the meaning with his perception and way of thinking. The messages for each, however, may be different.

It is a blessing to be able to design and be creative. It gives me a sense of completion, harmony, and relaxation.
