Why I’m painting?

Because I like and love it. It gives me freedom, when I paint I’m in my own world and I have a freedom to paint what I like and what I want in that particular moment. That is the main reason why I have a lot of experiments. You can shock in art someone in many ways, and we were witnesses of that through history. I prefer more to produce art that will emerge your feelings, your thoughts, artwork to which you will come again and again and again. That particular and special type of art I call OPVS EVOLVZIONE and they are something specific and personal!

In my case and my painting, sometimes inspiration is some photo, sometimes it’s the artwork of some other artist (because of theme or technique), I have also these special moments when I practically see finished painting that I have never seen before.

Sometimes I dream it and sometimes it’s that moment between dream and reality! After that I made a drawing, but the most difficult thing is to paint that painting as I “saw it” sometimes during the process of painting something new emerges up, something I haven’t expected faces that you see in one moment and faces that you’ve never seen before at this work in the next moment!

About this Blog…

This is blog, dependent, by independent and international artist Darko Topalski…

At the moment…
Since the constant development of the web and new abilities to create and present yourself on it, I’m working on the new version of my main website (www.topalski.com), it will be at the address www.conteart.com. Visitors will have the ability to rank artworks on it, and there will also be an art store, with order basket, checkout, and some new features.

Main new website at www.conteart.com will be finished (I hope) in a few months.

Purpose of this Art Blog is to present my artworks in progress, latest news,…

As for the main purpose of the blog, visitors can comment each and every published text.

I’m also preparing new artworks…
I have the impression that artworks I’m preparing will be slightly different, because I have a tinny little star in my life, since nov. 28 2006.- a newborn baby boy!

About My Sign…

Here is my sign, or latest version of it. Here you can see it described with all versions and step by step evolution…

If you take a closer look at my sign it could look like some sign of some secret group, that… but you could be also at the wrong way (or maybe not)…

What represents my sign???

I could say this is the Fourh Version, but let’s take closer look through versions…

V1 The first Sign (1990)

I’ve decided to make my own and personal sign. This first sign has only my initials in Greek= Darko+Topalski

V2 The Second (Deltha System)-(1993)

Now we have something different. First to my previous sign I’ve added another (outside) circle for the protection. Then I’ve implemented some old and ancient symbols in my sign to increase its strength. First Cross (unity of four elements, four main sides of the world), then another opposite triangle to the previous (Solomon’s Stamp), plus we have also here one arrow or triangle for every part of the world!

V3 The Third (1999)

The third version is just a little bit different from the previous. I’ve removed the inner circle and added eye, as the symbol for the visual. That year I’ve started to work more active on my art!

V4 The Fourth (2004)

The fourth and the final one is also the reason that afraid some visitors of the first version of this site (who knows, maybe did also the third to my first site).
OK finally now we have double squares instead triangles (4+4=8), 4 is the number of the emperor, and eight is for the equality (Libra). With more progressive arrows for the sides of the world. It has the idea of me in the art world, and idea (a dream for now) of equality of my work and sale,… but who knows.

Every sign is centered, it means that the center of triangles, circles, crosses and squares are at the same point!
