During high school he continues to write and paint and publish his art in several Montenegrin magazines. He attends drawing and painting school KIC Budo Tomovic (Cultural-Informational Center “Budo Tomovic”) and joins an alternative theatre group which remarks his first serious involvement in the world of art. At the beginning of his creative work, he also did performance art. He enrols in the Faculty of Fine Arts in Cetinje in 1992, but in the same year he had to join the national army of SR Yugoslavia. Four years later he returns to Cetinje to continue his college education, graduating in 2002. In 1996 he publish a book of poetry - “A Weep Under the Bell” (,,Plač ispod zvona”).
