In 1904 my family moved from Bohemia to New York where my great-grandfather had been offered a job as a cabinet maker at the Steinway Piano factory in Queens. Back in Prague a hundred and ten years later beauty and fantasy are still part of everyday life.

Do I know you??

I did this painting titled "Portrait". It's sort of strange in that it is quite difficult to decide if it's male or female, young or old. Just recognizable as a person. With no identity.

Waking up one morning and in that time of suspended animation before reality comes into sharp focus, I had an idea. A complete idea that was somewhat complicated.

All the new apartments in New York city have one thing in common , clean lines. I decided to do a painting of a wall in our old house in Marrakech. A simple realistic picture of light on a white plaster wall.
