Hi,
My name is Rumen Dragiev and I would like to welcome you to my online Gallery.
Early in my life I developed an interest in fine arts and attended art classes. I'm Bulgarian born, but I left my country at 30 and moved to South Africa, Pretoria Were I've spent many years.7 years ago made another move to London were I'm in Present. Not convinced that the arts could support me in the future, I pursued other career, but painting remained my passion.

My goal is to create aesthetically pleasing pictures that will brighten a mood.  My art is very spontaneous, original, and very optimistic

I found that by using the palette knife as my only tool while painting gave my oil paintings new life.

Techniques include, big strokes created with palette knives, extreme texture with heavy paints,

All the paintings displayed here, done predominately in oil paint, are original and unique pieces of art and are for sale.

I work on Abstract,Paintings of Flowers,landscapes and fantasy-inspired paintings, taking inspiration from both the world outside and the images in my mind.

The materials I use are good artists quality and all my work is finished to a high standard. Paintings are dispatched in immaculate condition, ready to hang on your wall

All my paintings are coated with varnish to protect them against light and dust for many years of enjoyment.

I am regularly adding new material so please bookmark me. I am happy to discuss commissions so if you want something special in a particular size/format/medium just get in touch.

Thank you for visiting my presentation and for your continued appreciation and support.
