Why am I news presenter?

Yes besides everything I do, I read news. Yes, I’m presenter at the regional TV station Panonija here in my hometown Novi Sad Why?

I’m constantly working on myself, on improvements, to achieve better artistic technique, or to try to catch happiness in life.

To be news presenter good look and voice are not enough! You need something more to be completely here in that single moment. That’s easy someone would say, but it’s not! You are almost never here, in your mind you are usually somewhere out there, with your family, ideas, problems, hopes,… Everyone should learn how to clear mind, how to be completely here. Only than you will be in the possibility to work with 100%, to finish it, and to proceed further Some of the philosophy schools are teaching us that to be present now, here, at the moment is the key, or one of them. If I say don’t think about the elephant, what’s in your mind… elephant Clean your mind, clean your self, and at the end try to catch that tiny moment between breath in and breath out! That will be then only the beginning.

Just spread your wings, and fly

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!
