The art, in all its forms, had influenced my whole life. Each of my paintings reflects the feeling I had at a specific moment of time.
The great painters who influenced my style are: Klimt, Picasso, V. Van Gogh, the Asian painters who represented Buddha and aboriginal painters from Australia.
I like the paintings where the life’s forms aren’t draw in a rigid and fix way, where you can play with them as you like…
I like to have the liberty to express myself, to transmitte an inside feeling, an idea, a thought…
As a Mathematics Teacher, I love geometry...

As a Mathematics Teacher, I love geometry with its forms, more or less abstract, which, I think, had influenced my style of painting, too...
From where I was young, I had a talent for painting, which I had inherited from my dad who used to paint in his free time. During the school time I remember the teacher asking me to give her one of my watercolor painting to can show it to expositions which took place in our town.

I was very surprised and it did make me so happy...

So I find out about a school where I can go and study…It was the Popular School of Art from Cluj-Napoca, very famous and had good and enthusiastic teachers, who inspired me more... I was drawing a lot, doing reproductions after the still nature, painting nudes after a real person (which was fun!) and I was studied the History of Art too.
When I finished the Faculty Mathematics, I stopped from painting too as I totally dedicated myself to my new profession: a mathematics teacher! So, During 7 years I taught thousand of children mathematics and computers, too, but I was still thinking of my old passion, painting, and I was still waiting for a time when I can practice it again! I have to thank you now to all those people from my life that made this think possible!
