My book ''ORNAMENT'' is an enriched and reinterpreted collection of memories from my time

as a lecturer at the National Academy of Fine Arts - Bulgaria. It can also be viewed

as the missing manual on this otherwise so necessary subject matter.

I think that the material presented and developed in this book has also helped

me in perfecting my artistry, swinging between geometry and

nature. While it may be helpful to others with similar inclinations, for the Art Schools, Polytechnics and

people interested in art, it will be absolutely indispensable.

The book is written as a free dialogue between me and others, though it

is based on the solid classical principles of the ornamental composition.
