At the beginning of my artistic career I examined the texture and the resulting possibilities of a digital photography and searched for the ideal of the formula of its inner order, an inner order that holds everything together, that describes an ideal whole. In the meantime, I am mainly concerned with the principles of order of various types of landscape, including both color landscapes, taken from nature also urban landscapes that surround me. Natural spaces worthy of protection with their properties, these special places, their light and their colors fascinate me again and again. I also try to set an example with special statements about peace and the preservation of our world.
