Watercolor is my favorite technique because I think it's the most expressive and the honest tool in painting. Each artwork, even the smallest miniature, is unique. Usually my watercolors are painted in one go, in alla prima style, but this is preceded by a long preparatory stage. It starts with inspiration, which originates from an idea. And an idea comes from the surrounding reality or fantasy. An idea and inspiration for me are inseparable: there cannot be one without the other. Usually I get inspired by something new, something that hasn't been solved yet. I'm not interested in what is already painted. Sometimes a conposition is built around just a little thing. I try to find a suitable combination of different techniques and methods for each watercolor. I pay special attention to the materials and their properties and select them depending on the result, that I expect. It is impossible to think through the whole process of watercolor painting, but the more I can do this, the better result I get.
