Monkeys are a great topic for me to carve. Not only because of the curiosity of their form, but above all because of the variety of emotions they express and can be transferred to a sculpture. It becomes less important then whether the detail is well made, and the superior value is capturing the moment that expresses something. It is best to carve such designs... from the heart. So do I - I collect references on a given topic, search, try to feel the atmosphere, the situation, etc. Then I put away all the collected documentation and sculpt from my hand, from myself, from my heart. In my opinion, only then the most interesting works are created. It doesn't matter the material you use or the technique - sensitivity is above all.

The basis for building the sculpture is the arrangement of the main body and this is what I focus on the most. Every time I start sculpting a head monkey firstly, I am thinking about an idea and emotions I want to express in the sculpture.  For me the detail is less important and plays a main role at a later stage.

In my daily work I use basic materials like Monster Clay, Super Sculpy, NSP Chavant or ordinary plasticine. Most of the tools I work with are self-made.
