Every artist has a beginning, mine started with a pencil. From a young age I loved drawing, so my parents encouraged my interest by enrolling me in art classes when I was five. In art classes, I especially enjoyed drawing illustrations of the plaster statues from the Academy of Fine Arts. It trained my eye and gave me an early experience of understanding of form and space, providing a strong foundation for artistic development. Unlike my classmates who experimented with many materials, my instructor allowed me to focus exclusively on pencil work. That path helped define my style early on. Charcoal and pastel were also part of my work at the time.
After working with the media presented up to this point, I began focusing on painting, which led to development of larger formats and new approaches to my artistic practice. My paintings explore the relationship between form, light, and space, aiming for an open atmosphere that lets the eye linger and settle in.
Alongside visual art, music has accompanied me since childhood. I began with classical guitar at the age of ten before exploring electric guitar, bass, and keyboards. Over time, composing became a natural extension of my musical journey, leading me to study audio production and develop my own approach to recording and producing music.
I graduated in Graphic Techniques on the NTF in Ljubljana. During my studies, I discovered photography as another creative language that continues to enrich my projects today. Of all the styles, I mostly enjoy photographing untouched nature, as it offers relaxation in a healthy and natural environment. After graduation, I expanded into graphic design, web design and web development to bring creative ideas to life.
Today, my work brings together drawing, painting, photography, music, design, and coding, guided by a desire to create distinctive, timeless works...
... and the desire to create unique & timeless products.
