"Ever since I was young, I have been fascinated by the paintings of great painters, in which they were able to paint human bodies and portraits in an incredibly perfectly realistic way. Like alive.
I decided that I would try to at least approach such mastery in my work. That is also why every new painting of a woman or a man is a big challenge for me.
Sometimes the idea of a future work is born in my head, and then I usually spend a long time looking for a suitable model for it. Other times, the idea of a work comes to me spontaneously while looking at a person. Then I play with it in my imagination and when it is assembled in my mind into a definitive form, I start working on the painting.
The idea of this painting arose spontaneously from a moment that I experienced after a party with friends. The painting depicts a somewhat dreamy young woman who wakes up in the morning after a wild night. Her pose, facial expression, exposed breasts provoke and stimulate the viewer to imagine in his imagination different variants of what the woman experienced at night, what she is thinking about now, how she feels. The atmosphere of the painting draws the viewer into the story and he becomes its actor."

Péter Duhaj is a contemporary Hungarian painter whose artistic journey has been shaped by the influences of esteemed figures in Hungarian art history. Born with a passion for colors, shapes, and the essence of fleeting moments, Duhaj initially sought inspiration from the masters of academia, particularly drawing from the profound impact of Hungarian artists such as István Sándorfy, Zsolt Bodoni, László Nyári, and Tibor Csernus from the 20th century.
In the early stages of his career, Duhaj aimed to emulate the perspectives and techniques of these artistic luminaries, allowing their profound influence to guide his work. However, as his artistic voice matured, Duhaj began to carve out his own distinct style and means of expression. Through this evolution, he discovered a unique path that resonated with his personal vision and artistic sensibilities.
Confident in his direction, Péter Duhaj now navigates an artistic journey that is unmistakably his own. Liberated by the freedom to unleash his wild imagination, he creates works that captivate audiences worldwide. His art transcends boundaries, eliciting interest and admiration from diverse corners of the globe.
Duhaj's oeuvre is characterized by an unbridled exploration of colors, shapes, and moments that encapsulate emotions. His mastery is particularly evident in his depictions of nude figures - women, girls, and men - where his brilliant skill brings these subjects to life on canvas. The result is a collection of works that exude a nearly mystical and erotic charge, captivating viewers with the intensity of emotion conveyed through impeccably rendered forms.
