I live and create in the wonderful nature of Anykščiai.
From the very beginning, from a feeling of inspiration, a thought, an image, delicate works are born. This is where the universe lives, what surrounds us. Using glass, combining it with other materials, experimenting, searching, enjoying the result or worrying about what you will get out of a special firing furnace, the work goes a long way. This is how glass ornaments, stained glass windows, paintings, dream catchers, design details and gifts are born. I present my work at art fairs, festivals, exhibitions, creative workshops.
It’s magical and I want to share it with you.
I am a designer and manufacturer of natural leather, laconic design, single handbags. The uniqueness of my work is that the front handbags are pictures printed on canvas.
I accept individual orders. I can make a handbag with the customer’s personal or my own photo, also without it.

Anykščiai Art Incubator-Art Studio is a creative industries centre with dozens of creators of ceramics, leather crafts and textile toys, illustrators, painter, knitters, designers, filmmakers, paper and textile makers, and craftswomen who create collections from honey and beeswax products. The originals are available for sale in the on-site shop or at www.amimonami.com. The art incubator not only connects creativity and business, but also invites you to concerts, events, workshops, exhibitions and film screenings. In the incubator, you will visit places you’ve never been before and experience the most exciting or extreme sensations with a virtual reality device, or take a stroll along the Cosmos Bird Trail – a room of mirrors that creates a sensation of infinity. The incubator’s outdoor area is also attractive, with a terrace next to the Anykšta stream, a large outdoor play area and cosy places for relaxation.
Visitors to the private blacksmith’s forge in the village of Velžis, founded by folk artist Saulius Kronis, learn about the old craft of blacksmithing, various metalworking methods and modern blacksmithing technologies, and have a chance to try their own hand at forging metal. The educational programmes are tailored to different age groups: the programme “Making a horseshoe for happiness” for schoolchildren, and “Harmony of traditions at the top of the crosses” for adults. The artist demonstrates the craft of blacksmithing using centuries-old pumps and a mobile smithy, showing how blacksmiths used to work when there was no electricity. In his work, the folk artist pays special attention to forge cross-cutting, which has been awarded the Golden Wreath prize. In the forge you can see a collection of metal Aukštaitija crosses made by the craftsman.
