The artist tried different fields - from wood engraving and moulding, to clothes-, web-, interior design and multiplication. At the moment he works in graphics and painting.

The painter so talks about his professional view:

“ I admire the expression “Everything what is genious is simple!”. That’s why I have always dreamt to learn how to show the essence of things using minimum of lines. For example, to paint a figure afoot. It turned out to be not so easy. Having appeared on the paper, the line starts playing with the infinity of different images – from a skinny runner in shirts, ready to start fighting for victory, to a sea wave in clouds of foam, stirred by a heavy wind…”
