Big psychedelic self-portrait
A self-portrait I started painting back in 2014. but never finished it, had some dilemmas about the background etc. After all this time I didn't find no other more creative solution but to simply finish it with a gradient sky, add some pink mountains. Hope its ok.. :) It is sort of the 4th painting in a series I did in 2009.-2010. named "Three portraits"

"Croatian Mountains" painting series
This is a series of Mountain paintings I started in the second half of 2017 and which where exhibited in the Lauba gallery in February 2018. In order to
achieve a more personal aesthetics, I decided to do the paintings without using
photo reference. Instead, I used a map to mark the most important peaks of that
mountain, as well as on-location sketches from my hikes.
"Biokovo"
oil on canvas
290x230cm
2017.
"Dinara"
oil on canvas
290x195cm
2017.
"Sljeme 2"
oil on canvas
290x150cm
2017.
(This is the only painting based on photo reference)
"Učka"
oil on canvas
290x175cm
2017
"Sljeme"
oil and egg tempera on canvas

These paintings are the second part of the Mountain painting series, which are created in the
technique of reverse glass painting – a technique traditionally used by
Croatian naive painters from the village Hlebine.
