His interest toward the visual fine arts started in the `90s; in the years 1992-1995 he was the student of the Francisc Hubic School of Fine Arts, and then between 1995-2000 he was an undergraduate in the Ioan Andreescu Academy of Visual Arts, painting department, ClujNapoca.

His years of study are to be considered as very productive, as results of which, besides the passionate thematic and figurative seeking, already by at the beginning of his artistic career, he can actually step up with a coherent, well-worked out and -established style.

His professional surrounding welcomes his works with amazement. He was forced to accept this during his years of faculty; however very few could see the real motive of this perplex, the reason of which wasnt anything else, but the reluctant confrontation with reality. (less info)
