I was born on April, 1st 1974 in Vitez, Bosnia and Herzegovina. I have completed elementary and high school in Zagreb, Croatia. I have been painting and writing since 1992 in order to express the spirit that moves me from inside. My poetry collection called 'Prints of Depth', which I illustrated myself, was published in 1998. I also illustrated eight other books of different authors – six poetry collections and a cover for a novel. For nine years I have been a member of the international Association of Mouth and Foot Painting Artists. I graduated painting at Free Academy of Art in the class of Mr. Donald Hall in Split, Croatia, in 2007. From November 2007 I have been working as a leader of painting and therapeutic workshops in Parents’ Association of Children as most serious physical invalids and for children with special needs, called ‘Angels’. I have participated in three-year painting workshop in Medjugorje, led by professor Carmelo Puzzolo. I have been a participant of great number of art collonies in Bosnia and Herzegovina and Croatia.
