Bio
I was born in Bratislava, Slovakia. From an early age I have displayed interest in fine arts, especially painting. Soon this love grew into passion and when my family decided to move to Canada in 1997, I seriously focused on improving my skills. As a high school student I worked hard to improve my portfolio and even did couple of co-op posts as an assistant art teacher. In 2003 I applied to Ontario College of Art and was accepted with a scholarship. Although I majored in drawing and painting, photography still fascinated me. Every year I’d fit in at least one class where I could further explore classic film as well experimental photography.
Since then, I have divided my interest to fit both photography as well as painting into my life. Both are important artistic outlets for my creative mind.
Influences
Painting: Vincent Van Gogh, Gustav Klimt,
Photography: Annie Leibovitz, Ash Imagery, Edward Burtynsky, Gregory Crewdson
