I didn't know I was an artist until....

Hello all!

Wanted to share with you few words about my art. I actually don't really know, how my life path got connected with art and creativity so much since my dream job as a child was a zookeeper or maybe a vet :). I've made art since always I guess but never really felt like an extra talented person or stood out from average….until the end of primary school, when I visited an art workshop and kind of surprised even myself, what I made there.
The more serious approach started with the decision to go to high school (art gymnasium), focused not only on basic but also on art education. I had the opportunity to learn from an amazing academic artist, I got all the painting, shading, perfectionistic skills there. After 4 years of making tons of art, I kind of had enough of everything and left it aside, tired, so tired of making art all the time, with no clue what to do.
I wanted to be creative and useful and since making homes was one of the subjects that interested me (anyone here was also addicted to The Sims game just for building and decorating the house :)?), I decided to study architecture and left the »art thing« aside for few years.

Later I figured that I really do miss art and tried to connect all of my knowledge – architecture-graphic design-art in one creative way, so I started with a brand Home art, making highly textured paintings for home, showing my work at art fairs, selling to different clients, especially people who renovated their homes and wanted to have something unique and special on their walls.
After a while I started to feel stuck, I didn't feel like I have my own voice in art, so I needed to take a big change…..are you interested how that went? Maybe a theme for the next post?

Today I am sharing with you a small part of my art process in picture and video. Enjoy!
