“I believe that there should be as many different trends in art as possible. Life is too multifaceted and emotional. I see my role in conveying to the viewer my inner joy and enjoyment by the fact of the existence of life. I want people to break away from problems and look at the sky, the sun, the waves and each other. I have a firm conviction that art is inextricably linked with the emotional state of people and it can be reflected via depicting the state of the elements and the phenomena of nature. I work with pastels and I find and use different materials, textures with it for deep emotional effects. Every artwork has its own history and its own emotional aspect. I feel the problem of contemporary people who stay very far from nature. I create my works to draw people's attention to the miracle of existence and the beauty of nature.”
