I was born in a small town of Kraljevo, Serbia, in 1960. Now I live and work in Novi Sad. I am a self taught artist. I have been painting all my life. I painted a lot until the age of 30, and then I got married, got children and worked in our family owned company as a graphic designer. During that time, I painted rarely and just for my own sake, using it as an escape of daily troubles. Three years ago I finally got the chance to start painting seriously again and I have been doing it professionally since then.

I paint basically because I have to. If I do not paint I do not feel fine. It is the only work that never bore me, which always pushes me to seek for the new horizons; it makes me learn over and over again, and before and after all, it makes me feel alive. I love the Old Masters, the play between light and shadow, action, real life presentation. I work in pencil, pastel, oils and acrylic. I love to see high technical skills in painting and always try to achieve it. Painting oils in layers is a true project for me and a real challenge with unlimited options which lets me express whatever I want.
