My mistake is in the latest publications on Saachi and I will quickly try to correct them. I made a mistake in the description of the paintings and the materials that were used for the paintings.

Everything is simple.

I pressed drawing and it gave me out of five types, everything that did not fit the description and I chose a pencil.

I did not find either oil or acrylic.

I was wrong. I had to choose painting and then there is oil paint, acrylic or gouache.

Oh, I am a gaper))
I urgently change it, it takes a lot of time, so that you understand a little.

Today I am posting another painting, very dear and important to me – this is a Portrait made in the cubism direction. I have dedicated a lot of my works to this direction and many of them are already owned by collectors around the world.

This direction is close to me and I really like it.
I made this picture with acrylic paints, although before that, until 2018, I worked with oil paints in most of my works. Since 2018, I started working with acrylic.

Which gives me more time to work, since in our northern Canadian latitudes, winter lasts six months and the oil does not dry and gives a smell and it takes a long time to paint. Of course, there is a way out of the situation. But I switched and other types of my works appeared in my collection. Take this picture, admire, enjoy and remember that the world is beautiful. How beautiful is everything that belongs to its creator, that is created for life and that is eternal, like our soul

The beginning of the new 2019 year inspired me to write about my paintings about winter.

You will immediately think that I love this topic. I live in Canada, where there is a lot of winter,more than 6 month in year.
And I manage to draw winter. I often received prizes and exhibited my works at exhibitions or published them in publications.
But I will disappoint you, this is one of my directions, but not the most beloved. I am very good drawing the winter.

Now those traditions of drawing, with which I started ,a little outdated.
This is still the traditional East European school, the old Russian traditions

Over the years I began to move away from the primary methods of drawing.
You will be able to see how my equipment has changed on the example of the exposed photos in this post.
I am not an adherent of one theme and one style, one picture.
I always want a new one. It is in my life I am fidget.

Already living in Canada,I created intresting collection of small paintings devoted to winter.
This is a lively collection filled with originality.
There are many things that show that I live in Canada. These are the buildings of houses and the landscape of nature.
I set up here to draw small pictures.
I will not say that it is special. I liked it.
Many critics say that on the contrary, it is harder to paint small paintings than big ones.
I will argue. It is easy for me to draw small paintings.

That’s just sometimes you have to repeat to remove the layer of paint, shade white.
Therefore, the painting is not created in one month, and sometimes it takes about a year to finish it. This is the process of highlighting more places in the painting.

Using this painting as an example, I show how applying a bleached layer several times gives a glow to the picture.
It is like nourished with small bright lights.
Very impressive!!!!!

The range of shades is wide, although the winter landscape is monotonous.
This is not true in my collection.
