The color suggests its texture, the one from which I will experience the most satisfaction. Quantitatively, paint serves my needs for color - it needs to vibrate "unlocked" for development. By development, I mean its correspondence with the adjacent stain and its correlation with everything else within the work. The effect of this is a specific anxiety, nervousness, and state of drama, insofar as the above is part of a visual conflict and meaningful node.
Yes, color comes with its shape (its body), and from there follows its volume and specific presence and location. Color is form, once optically by definition and a second time, for me, a volume tactilely tangible and physically present (objectified) as mass. I can say that my pictorial compositions are made up of volumes in different proportions.
Work on a painting continues as long as the idea of it does not weaken its compulsive grip. The idea is subject to discipline in realization. I control the infinite possibilities (for color) with quick decisions dictated by trained intuition. I embark consciously on paths I will abandon. I lay colors that are "dead ends." Attacks of sorts, forays into the field of the new. I test the territory I will set out to conquer in a series of short but repeated sessions. A complete and perfect disillusion that brings me into (successful) working mode.
Painting a picture is too long a journey. A journey that, metaphorically speaking, bites its tail. It causes me fatigue, but it also brings the respite of a temporarily relieving delirium. I mean the trance of the millions of brushstroke repetitions over the same "refrain".
I understand the pictorial field as a testimony to the road and the time "spilled" along the way. The painted is an archival document of the form that this time takes "spilling" onto the path.
The problems of realizing a painting are not technical. They are only related to the endurance of patience that I am willing to give to it. I compare patience to service, service to the idea. How far am I willing to go in my patience? In each of my next paintings, I do believe further, or closer - the poles overlap.
What confronts the viewer of my painting is my play with time, frozen in a seemingly ready and comfortable cast, the landscape of which may deceive, or may reveal deceptions. In any case, it is a hole in the coordinate system of the mind.
My painting is that of an anti-impressionist. It marks in a markedly expressive way certain states of obsessive belonging.

Anton Terziev, a contemporary Bulgarian artist, is a master of using sharp irony as his artistic tool to engage with various contemporary subjects. His works are characterized by a profound use of iconography that conveys a stark and critical imagery. In his artistic repertoire, Anton skillfully weaves together elements of stakes, skills, and storytelling, resulting in figurative contemporary art that carries a fine touch of social commentary, humor, and messages about the artist's condition.
Anton Terziev draws inspiration from two distinct sources. Firstly, his art is often born from real-life occurrences, unfolding around him in a way that sparks his creative process. Secondly, his imagination plays a pivotal role in his work, allowing him to craft vivid and thought-provoking imagery. Each of his creations is garnished with subtle elements of pop culture, extracted from movies and books. Embedded within every piece is a narrative, a metatext that enriches the viewer's experience without overwhelming them, for Anton believes that good art communicates softly but effectively.
What distinguishes Anton's work is his unwavering commitment to leaving his audience with a sense of open-ended wonder. His pieces invite viewers to engage in a dialogue with the art, encouraging them to interpret, question, and explore the narratives he presents. Choosing the perfect title for his works is a challenge that he often tackles by drawing inspiration from literature, cinema, or music.
Anton Terziev's career as a painter is intricately intertwined with his identity as a writer. His ideas take shape in the form of paintings and art objects, reflecting his diverse talents. Beyond painting, he brings his artistic vision to life through performances, filmmaking, and design, demonstrating a multifaceted approach to creative expression.
