Biography
It's a boring one. Except for my primary school art teacher, a great watercolorist as I discovered later on, who found a way to discipline some of his more restless pupils, me included, by locking them up after school into his study full of various art books. Flipping pages and pages of beautiful pictures revealed a new, yet unseen world and started an insatiable hunger for discovering things of beauty in most unlikely places. Despite my teacher's efforts, I never learned to draw well enough, but he managed to show us other ways to express ourselves and was prepared to provoke and support our efforts, no matter how inept they may have been at the time. After that came the discovery of photography which enabled me to paint with light despite the lack of traditional artistic skills. And countless hours in darkroom, dipping fingers in chemicals and waiting for unexpected images to show at last. While studying journalism, I was lucky enough to be either working with or interviewing some of the best Slovene photographers of the time, learning a few tricks of the trade on the way. If I am to pick just one name, I'd say Stojan Kerbler with his wide-angle family portraits was the one by whose work I was most impressed. Which is not to say that others and not only photographers, did not influence and enrich my perception of the world out there. And long after there were suddenly computers promising to at least mimic all artistic tools I was never able to master before. And finally there's digital photography, enabling me to shoot first, think, tweak and twist later.
 
Statement
Although it is highly improbable for anyone to be reading this lines, you obviously are. So I may as well be honest with you... You se, I'm not an artist, at least not the creative type I may have wished to become ever since my art teacher first locked me up in his study for disturbing the class. Can't play any musical instrument, can't draw or paint, could maybe write, but have no imagination, .... The only thing I have is this hunger for beauty in every form and shape. My quote creative unquote process consists of finding unusual views of unlikely shapes ... and hoping there might be someone out there to find enjoyment in my findings. For a collector, rather then creator, I find photography, especially digital, to be the ideal media, as it gives me a tool to harvest images almost unconsciously. Collected pictures are then, and not so seldom years after being taken, tweaked, twisted, mixed and abused to the point when they reveal what one might call their inner image. Which quite so often takes a form of a black and white photograph. Because, despite using computers extensively, photography remains the central point of my artistic attempts.
