If “all the world is a stage”, so it may be the puppet-show, where a person is not protected against the cruelty, vices, destiny and can lose his faith feeling helpless, broken and miserable.

I want to show the good man, his confident, may be naive openness to the world, the need to mutual understanding, love and tenderness. I want to show a person, the way he is, the way he will present himself to the Lord, the way he lives among people; I want to show the interrelation between the people that are dear to each other or are strangers, people who are gathered in the families or are lonely, I want to show the evidence of soul and emotion state, I want to express the sensation of the human warmth and kindness.

I like to design – “to stage” the pictures, to create the situations, to build the relationship between the characters, to clean gradually the plot from something that seems to be minor. I like to create the figures in the nude, without clothes, because the dress – historical or relative – is always a mask. That influences the image. I’m trying to leave on the canvas only most important and necessary for life – Nature and Person.
