Since childhood I have loved art, music, architecture, even gardening, photography, handicrafts. My husband and I, who has been painting beautifully since childhood but has never been allowed to pursue it, love to visit galleries, both here and abroad. Among other things, I have a musical background. I have never been particularly interested in painting, but anything interesting to create with my hands has always been fun. So one day I decided to paint. It literally consumed me, when I paint I feel that I live in another world, a world where there is peace and tranquility. I listen to music, both modern and classical, especially operas. I am a graduate of Mrs. Maria Sibaiová's School of Painting, I have further educated myself, and I am still educating myself with the academic painter Mr. MgA. Because I like nature, I take a lot of pictures of it, so I started to paint it. And also because the real beautiful nature is getting lost. More and more "concrete" and natural calamities and disasters are destroying it. And so I think that maybe one day future generations will have a chance to see what natural beauty looked like in my lifetime. I paint what I photograph on vacations and trips. I paint for myself, for joy, for peace of mind. I paint as I see and feel it, and I want to paint for the people around me, so that they can look at the paintings with joy, with taste. I have given many paintings as gifts, either for Christmas or just for the pleasure of the people I love. I also like to focus on certain details when I paint, I love to play with them. Some paintings I will have framed. I choose very high quality frames, even if they are more expensive in price, because not only the painting on the canvas, but also a nice, and especially a good quality frame, makes the painting even nicer. It is the icing on the cake. Because I have also encountered that some people do not want framed paintings, I paint around the corner so that it is possible to hang an unframed painting. Although I mainly paint in a photorealism style, I have recently started painting in an abstract style. There are not many young people who like the classics but want some paintings. I never thought I would enjoy abstraction, but I have started. It's a way to express the mood of the moment, plus it develops the imagination. I have more paintings at the moment, I paint according to my mood and the mood I am in. All my paintings have a final protective varnish. Participation in exhibitions.
