Original artwork description:

Amazons is a very personal story: at some point in my life I was put in the incredibly uncomfortable position of having to choose between a few extremely gorgeous women. The choice was not easy, and, as the picture suggests: I was most unprepared for this daunting task, Thus I have created this painting in which I have depicted myself as a small man with a Yoda -head and amazed look on my face. I have my man-toys with me and I am facing this giant Centaurus-woman that's about to impale me. In the back, a few other beauties await - like traps to another life of insignificance and/or mindless bliss.

I have included a few cats in this picture to simbolize my need to escape to another dimension of existence - the cat being the universal symbol of the trans-dimensional portal.

The whole scene is based in the old city-center of Bucharest: a decrepit place where the crumbling buildings and uneven pavement was a permanent danger.

Materials used:

oil colors and thinners
