SUMMARY
I entered exceptionally to Fine Art School when I was fourteen years old,since then, I developed my passionand hand working records in successive painting projects and in the styleof various art media and fields, including graphic design, engraving, tapestry home furniture and scarves designs. I was recognized as anavant-garde painter in my early career. I have done individual and group exhibitions in my country and galleries abroad, and that was very important, because I obtained awardsand references in articles written by art critics innewspapers, art books,journals and televisioninterviews.I have some work in private collections and museums.
