Testimonial re John Coghlan Portrait. Dear Damyan!
I would just like to say a big thank you for a wonderful portrait of my husband, John Coghlan, the former and original drummer with Status Quo.
It is without a doubt the best likeness of him we have ever seen in a portrait and will create much positive comment when framed and in pride of place in our home. John is really thrilled with it and we are very happy to recommend this great artist to others. This is such a special and personal present and John was very happy to receive it.
With thanks and best wishes

Testimonial re pencil portrait I was really happy to get a natural pencil sketch portrait from DamYan that makes me look
young and handsome...........he created a really good likeness of me and how I looked
a few years ago....it sits on my desk and soon I will be framing it! Next I am going
to order a portrait of my favorite music group. Thanks a lot.....

Testimonial re Madonna ArtDeco #1. I discovered this young “unknown” artist DAMYAN last winter at a friend’s house in Prague.
I never purchase artwork for its value but from a “blow of heart”.
His portrait drawings (some recalling parchment) are thoroughly seductive and
magical in their technical virtuosity.
The artist’s recent portraits feature major movie or music stars. My purchase
was an astonishing portrait of Madonna with a mix of intense pencil and color
drawings in an art deco surround.
His work is inimitable. The skill used in his artwork is his own signature
easily recognizable between hundreds of other portraitists.
A truly appealing work and I wish to acquire more artwork soon. The destiny
of this young talent will soon be recognized by major galleries and critics.

Testimonial re Lil Jon Portrait. I was happy to purchase an original portrait from my colleague! Lil Jon looks allmost real and I suppose the artist spent a lot of time to draw all the details. Also I liked the blending between the figure and the graffity on the background. Thank you!

DAMYAN AUTOBIOGRAPHY
Alma Mater
In 1998 I have graduated with success from the
School of Arts, in Fine Arts
Section.
In 2002 I have received with success the Bachelor
Degree at the State College of Fine Arts.
In 2003 I have graduated with honors from the
College of Fine Arts (Painting
and Graphics Section), and received the profession
of teacher of painting.
From 2003 till 2006 I was studying at the State
Academy of Music, Theatre
and Fine Arts, in the Interior Design Faculty.
Competitions
I took part in many Fine Art international competitions
during
the last 15 years including:
2006 - International Competition for the Composition
of an Original
Painting organized by the Onassis Foundation (Greece).
2004 - The Competition for the Original Composition
organised by the Latin
Union and The Alliance Francaise, where I took
the honourable third
place.(France)
I always thought that the most important function
of Art is Moral Aesthetic and Intellectual, it
must be like a revelation, when the Artist becomes
an instrument, a tool in God's hands.
Interests in music are wide from the Classical
XVII century Music till
today. I admire Classical Overtures, Acappellas,
Requiems, Symphonies, modern Jazz, Soul and R'nB
artists, also present day styles and electronic
music like Trip Hop, Hip Hop, Soft Jazz, Rock'n'Roll,
Punk Rock, Instrumental, Experimental, Acid Jazz,
Ambient, Environmental, World, Ethno, Rap, Hardcore,
Gothic, Gospel, Chill Out, Many kinds of House
and Trance Music like Funky, Dirty, Balearic,
Jungle, Soft and Light, Psychedelic, Tribal, Tech,
Minimal, Percussion, Latino, Groove and many others...
Damyan 29?
The number 29 is my lucky number, it repeats in
many key events in my
life, and it has a strong potential for creative
leader skills. By numerology
this number is governed by the Moon and those
born under it are highly
imaginative, idealistic and possess a dreamy nature.
We
hope you will enjoy the portraits and getting
to know us through the NEWSLETTER and perhaps
you will be happy to own and enjoy an original
DAMYAN PORTRAIT and also know you are supporting
and helping Damyan in his new life and to fulfill
his dreams
ENJOY!
