I have devoted myself to glasspainting, one of the most singular and difficult techniques which painting has to offer. I began painting seriously some 25 years ago for myself, not realizing at that time one day my paintings would achieve such wide public relevance. I painted what I saw and felt. My themes were taken from my memory, my vacations, watched nature and people looking for the shadows of different colors and when I was ready to realize my work, I came home with all of it in my mind, just closed my eyes and imagine the scene.
