I am not interested in such trivial concepts as "source of inspiration", "fascinations", "self-reflection" - I just live, ie I get up in the morning, wash myself, eat breakfast, lunch, dinner, sleep at night. Between these very important activities, I paint pictures, draw drawings, and make graphic arts: etching, woodcut, lithography. I paint very large, small and even smaller pictures. I try to make the paintings beautiful, graphics clean, drawings simple. Whether what I do has value depends on my sensitivity to the world around me and my talent.
