" "As I grow older, my art also becomes more mature. Everything changes in relation to the simplification and synergy of complex forms. That cannot be achieved without the processing of the existence and artistic experience. The inner life comes to the surface stronger than in youth. I seek a higher expression and that is at the end of the process of multidimensional reduction to “essential forms”: some sort of “neo or re-minimalism”.

Sepia is a watery drawing technique and we can put it conditionally among the inks.This is a specific brownish color (obtained from the ink of sea mollusk the cuttlefish) which is sometimes "golden" and diluted with water on certain types of paper can give "green" tones. On one occasion when I painted on the sea, under the blast of a wind a map full of sepia drawings, flew into the sea With the help of a colleague we managed to get them out of the sea and dry them. But what happened? The structure of the drawings and the essential mass remained intact, and there were reddish, blue, yellow, green tones in the form of capillaries and tiny discolored stains, where there were clumps of dense sepia (sepie).This gave the drawings a special "atmosphere".
Although I have never seen another artist (in my environment) to be more serious in a grated ink (surely there are some), I really did feel good in it. I went out several times at night (for the authenticity of experience) with glass-free glasses and built-in flashlights, seated in the park, by the river, or going to the old town of Dubovac and adding something of a greater variety to my drawing opus. I was concerned with the release of light and the "emergence" of the form from the full black and the emptiness of blank paper. Unlike drawings and images where I always have the feeling of creating a form, in this technique I have a sense of liberating the form (which is present but hidden).

Looking at, ie analyzing the so-called the visual elements of an image, we see the surface, the outer look of an artwork. All practical art education (the use of artistic elements, ie art grammar) is mainly focused on this surface analysis. Sometimes, through these elements, it tries to penetrate deep into the essence of the image, into what it initiated and created a work, into an experience (this is the primary task of theory, sociology, and art history). This is very difficult. There are works that undoubtedly suggest its depth and meaning, but there is, at least sometimes, the possibility of a mistake.
