As a sculptor he utilized found pieces of material given to him by nature – rocks and boughs that he completes with metal or glass and gave them unique forms of animals, people or forest spirits. As a painter he used oxy-acetylene torch instead of a brush. Technique of painting with fire and smoke gives amazing means of expression: lightness and dynamism but also power that couldn’t be achieved with any paint. His paintings are ethereal but powerful and capable of influencing viewers’ emotions.

The professor worked on porcelain figurines passionately and treated them like little sculptures.
