LITOGRAPHY

Lithography is a technique where an artist draws directly on a stone block using ink. This ensures 100% authentic depiction of the author's style and hand drawing. The motive is then transferred from the stone to paper by a lithography machine. Every color has to be drawn again on the stone.

The main difference between lithography and other printing techniques is that after the prints are finished, the stone is completely grinded. This discards the original motive and it is not possible to print it ever again.

About

ABOUT

My motifs are a blend of imagination and classical inspiration, deeply influenced by Renaissance drawing and painting. I’ve developed a distinctive style based on dynamic poses, strong perspective, and, most importantly, a unique linework, which comes straight from my imagination and knowledge of form and anatomy.

Every piece I create begins with a freehand drawing, drawn directly on a large scale canvas, entirely from my mind without any references. This approach allows me to fully explore the idea and refine the composition and details before moving on to painting. I primarily use acrylic paints, which give me the freedom to build layers, work with transitions, and create depth.

The way I think about my art is that it should be a combination of elegance, strong emotion and quality craftsmanship, combining the approach of old masters with a contemporary twist.

My work has been exhibited across the Czech Republic and Slovakia and is included in private collections all over Europe. Over the years, I’ve collaborated with brands like Albi, Albatros, Harley-Davidson, and ŠKODA, bringing my vision to a wider audience.
