Dumitru Ciocan

Nickname: Mitica
Country: Romania - Role: Artist

I was born in the city of Campulung Muscel, the city that was the source of inspiration for the most beautiful paintings of Nicolae Grigorescu, one of the greatest painters in Romania.The vocation towards painting and drawing started when I was a small child, but unfortunately I did not focus on this field, but to my surprise with the help and encouragement of a good friend I discovered that I have potential and must try. Painting is an excellent stress reliever. Why I chose watercolor, because apparently at first it seemed something simple, but in reality the spontaneity and the few corrections require real concentration and mastery, which made it difficult to master. Water is the real ingredient, next to the pigment, that gives the explosion and strength of a watercolor work. In 2021 I became an effective member of the Association of Romanian Watercolor Painters IWS-Romania. My paintings have been exhibited at national and international events:
2019 Romania in watercolor, the first national exhibition of watercolor painting
2019 Make the watercolor great again! 1st international watercolor exhibition Bucharest - Romania
2021 Romania in watercolor, the second national exhibition of watercolor painting
2022 International Coffee Painting Online - United by by the coffee color Peru, 5th Honorific Mention
2022 FabrianoinAcquarello 2022
