A few thoughts on creativity:
All I wanted to do was paint. Nothing in life has given or gives more satisfaction than the moment when I pick up a brush, dabble in paint and dive into that strange river of creativity. I often work impulsively, listening to my intuition. Sometimes I mature the idea for a long time, several years, sometimes, after being impressed, I implement it very quickly.
The topics are very diverse - from biblical characters to old, abandoned, crumbling mansions and buildings. Nature, man, deep inner experience inspires. Sometimes I get a state, as if I am not in reality, but in some kind of visionary world where there is no sense of matter, there are only certain fluids, shapes, flows of colors. My hand is guided by a strange invisible force, and I just surrender to it.
