"If I were to be tempted to define my work in one word I would say: optimism. I am an observer, a commentator on the events of life going on next to me. I memorize the fragmented reality and process it in the depths of my gray cells, known only to myself, or rather unknown. I am most fond of color linocut and this technique I practice most often - creating my "linocut" world amuses me all the time and gives me a lot of joy, which I would like to share."
