"I mature the idea of the picture for a long time, think about it, draw it in a notebook. The eloquence of characters and motives, the naivety and illogicality of their relationships are very important. When painting, I stick to the original idea, but at the same time I improvise, if ideas arise, I even change the whole idea several times. And this is not a correction of mistakes, but rather a way to create a multi-layered surface, which I highly value in my painting. I think that painting is not just covering a certain area with paint, but painting in the true sense of the word, so that the canvas breathes, layers and texture are felt."
