From the painting I took the colour conception and from the graphic art, the line conception. I made those things into investigation objects in my art, because the colour and the line are always inspiring and encouraging me to work with art.


Source of the color

In the beginning the colour is a spiritual occurrence, because in this material world nothing has its own colour. Here the colour is showed only as a reflection.
As is generally known, we see the colours with the help of the light, and this world is lit up by the sun. As the sun is inside the boundary of the material world, it is also a reflection object, which is reflecting the blinding brilliancy and the warmth outgoing from the body of God.
In contrast to material world, in the spiritual world every creature has its own shine, colour and form.
The colours are inspiring me very much and I like to work with them.
With the help of colours it's possible to express infinitely feelings and moods.
There are only three basic colours and by mixing them, they bring us to the idea about endlessness, infinity and eternity.
