I am a painter and my work focuses on traditional values in contemporary art. I am currently working on a series of straight forward yet subtle vignettes of the enigmatic city. Through studying the elements of the visible reality, colors, forms, and volumes I strive to create harmonious and highly crafted images of a quiet city. I am preparing new works for several shows in the coming year including my first show in Switzerland at mitart gallery in Basel.
