Message:	I am an autodidactic artist. My personal life and art flow paralel one to another. About my art I have to say that I don't belong to any art school, my painting is developed in a very personal base. I don't need and I don't have attraction to any academicism of the art history. I painting are very open and free. My inspiration comes from darkness. My ideas are materialized spontaneously, I can not plan my painting, that means I only need to have the art materials in my hands and than I start to paint what comes in my head at that moment. If I plan my work , I can not make it. I am a compulsive artist, obsessiv. In reality I make an art work, whenever I need to say something. Sometimes I think I take part of the time of the cavern man, spontaneous, primitive, as the ideas come as volcanoes and earthquake inside myself that have to be expelled and than to be materialized in any kind of art support. I do not have a daily timetable in my art, my art does not work that way. I am not worried if my work grows or if I am included in certain art systems. I do not care about art that are in , or is fashionable, or else if certain art galleries decide if this or that kind of art is fashion. I am also not worried whatever the art critics say about my works. This kind of decision from critics who decide art does not make part of my personal universe. Art, as I see, must be free. The artist ought to be free in any circunstance. For me it is important the quality of art, the material quality too, and that the art has a good message to the society, the message could be good or bad, but it is important that generations after mine could see and admire and also that part of my ideas in my art works. For me the reciprocity and the distance between the public and private world is something questinable. For me the real art and the truly function from art is something unknown; my real vision of art is ART IS ATTITUDE. I am not different from the mostly artist, I elaborate my art production alone, then art is something very individual and unilateral. So I have the relation artist and art production. I have no notion of the effect or impact on public after my art production is finished. At my vernissages, through 15 years as artist, I have heard a lot about what the people feel: some don not understand, some think whatever they want, some understand in a frame of their knowloges. I enjoy and have fun watch the people: I like the public interaction, artist and art, it is like a party for me. I do not support the intelectual side of art. This interaction makes public take part of the creation process of the artist and I like this very much, it is grateful and natural. In reality anyone can be an artist, it depends of if one develops its art habilities or not. And the chance of taking part of a workshop is very good, then it makes art more domocratic. I am sure that a workshop open to public, like the one you are organizing in this project will open the minds of many visitors to the studios, and then they will also feel they are creative and art gives them a chance to open and develop their artistic hability and interact with the resident artists. The idea of actuallity is my everyday routine. I live the present and my paintings register exactly my life at present, but my artistic know-how and inspiration come from the darkness, I do not ask the present as artist. I know I have to say and do something that comes from inside myself . So is my art present at the actuality of the world and all its differences and problems. They come as a positive signal for me, the actuality does not bother my creative process. I can not have a daily routine as artist. This would be a torture for me, but I am not against. My mind works very fast and spontaneous and that happens in my art process too. My daily project begins with the ideas that come in my mind. This is my first priority, then I begin a timeless work of putting my ideas on the canvas on as an artists that changes everyday.
