Welcome to my virtual atelier! Here are some of the paintings I have managed to make over the last 20-odd years. It took me quite a long time contemplating over the text of this page. Not without reason. Viewing computer images certainly lacks the immediacy and intimacy of my real atelier located at Zrnovnica, a small place in the vicinity of Split, where my guests are offered a cup of coffee or a glass of wine and a slice of cheese while I keep pulling out the canvas after canvas from the dusty conrners of my working room. A look through the window also adds to the special atmosphere since it opens up to the dramatic peaks of Mosor, a mountain raising above Zrnovnica which is beaten by the winds and parfumed by the aluring odours of broom tree and pines. Yet, I hope the moments spent in this virtual atelier of mine will give you pleasure and, hopefully, you will exit my home page filled with positive energy.
