ABOUT THE ARTIST

The whole story began when I was a 4 year old girl who colored with a green pencil a horse in a book. My grand mother, who was deeply, esthetically disgusted by this barbaric act of creation nterrupted the fairy-tale with a comment: "Who has seen a green horse?! Such a thing doesn’t exist at all!" And every time when I was "reading" this book by myself I also comment out loud: " but there must be somewhere green horses like this, right? "

Over the years the green horse become for me a symbol of independent art, free imagination and joy of creation. And years later… I have found my green horse for real. Far away from my home, my country, and yeah, far away from my dream life and any artistic independence I have found a merry-go-round green horse leaning against a fence in backyard of my neighbors house. I grabbed my pastels and made a sketch (lucky me! The green horse didn’t move, posing patiently J) This green horse was a sign for me I had to find the time and courage to paint and to do all the artistic things deposited in my soul.

So green horses do exist! I have the proof… against the knowledge of my grandmother!
