Miniatures of water or diluted color is paving its way around the canvas. Therefore, this paintings are water pathways, shapes and textures, created on the micro scale. Each application is a new layer, new image, which leaves a trail and a stain. Liquid pigment creats water landscapes, shapes and textures. Imaginate autogenic process of painting is spontaneous, partially intuitively managed process of creating stains.
It is necessary to be disciplined, nevertheless, a disciplined author must master the technique of automatism, so that water can spill and curve as it does on a macro scales in order to create its landscapes; a sensational and evocative art. At the same time an essence of a processual art lies precisely in the anthropological ties with its origin. Creation of an anti-form connects us back to earth, basic elements of nature, where any form disintegrates and merges into a new form. This leads to the occurrence of stains, which decompose or combines as all biological processes. Reminding us of the chemical reactions of each element. Beside acrylics, there is a washing pouder which helps to represent elimination and substitution.
