Artist's Statement    
 

Art saved my life. Art is real, all other is an illusion.

Statement of Artistic Process    
 

Printmaking is a serendipitous journey. In monotypes for instance, printing oil forced by the etching press, flows in wonderful and unpredictable ways. Every print is a surprise and a gift.

Bio    
 

I was born on an island off of the Croatian coast. My first memories are of surging sea crushing against the rocky promontory upon which my father built his house. Also, shifting sands and seagulls. Crows in the vineyards further up in the hills. Much of my work reflects these primal delights.
