'There is no point in talking about painting’ (Richter). And I only have a few words about my passion for colour and that life without colour would be very much meaningless and grey. it is the subject matter that acts as the driving force for each painter – colour drives me. Nature and landscapes are merely a source of inspiration. My fascination lies with the effect of colour and composition, and the live pulsating surfaces of paintings.

List of Books
books that I have lately enjoyed: 'How to look at a painting' by F. Barbe-Gall, 'Painting Today' and 'Conceptual Art' by T. Godfrey, 'The $12 million stuffed shark' by D. Thompson, 'Contemporary Painting in Context by Anne R. Peterson et al., 'A natural history of the palette' by V. Finlay, 'Concerning the Spiritual in Art' by W. Kandinsky.
Taschen's 'Collecting Contemporary Art' was quite a bore with brief interviews and no real substance but to give a basic introduction/overview to the world of contemporary art - another piece of marketing. 'Owning Art' by L. Buck and J. Greer which was a bit more informative than Taschen's. 'Seven days in the art world' provides more or less the same information but through the personal experience of the author and therefore it was more interesting.
