I am old-fashion, traditional illustrator, relaying on ancient knowledges about visual reading. In last 25 years I have mastered old techniques and language. I am telling stores with visual language. I am searching in theory of visual, science and philosophy to deepen understanding of visual communication, to understand and to create. To tell more than thousand words and go under the skin of viewer. I want reader to be seduced into a story, to fill the passion and greatness of what is laying behind it.
I illustrate for young children, children, young adult, adult and advertising.
I am always in a search for a new expression.
I have developed strong skills in many areas; I am working at different universities (Ljubljana, Lisbon, Zagreb, Sofija, Istanbul) and on many different projects including artistic (painting, drawing, photography, video, performance, conceptual), research (visual communication, verbal communication, mythology and symbols, consciousness, human perception and behavior) and commercial (illustrations, book design, corporate identities, web design, packaging). On one hand I had to develop various skills to be able to survive as freelancer and on the other this was ideal for me because I am very curious and I want to understand all facets of life.
