Why are the site being attacked?
Yesterday, the site was pulled out of a crash. It has crashed twice in the last month. Oh, come on, bots. Do people in China and Israel really not read what I write about? It’s a shame that sometimes they realize this too late.

And I continue to rake the shelves of my paintings and talk about them. There is nothing more beautiful than the artist’s own story about his work.
I created this work back in 2017.
A lot of works were created that year, about 20 came out in a year. That’s a lot.
The artist’s efficiency. You might think about it. After all, I’m not rewriting someone else’s work, but creating my own. And I’m not creating for today, not to order from someone, but I’m creating so that this work is new, fresh for a long time and conveys the era, time and date in which the painting was created.

2017.
This portrait of a young man was created to try the style of painting portraits, which is characterized as romanticism, pop art.
I created it from the image of a young man. The dark spot at the center level is a specially thought-out strategy to shade the look and emphasize the expressiveness of the image.

Well, the brightness of the colors plays along with it.
The portrait is small, 8” x 8” x1” with side processing. Finished. The material I used is oil paints. The beautiful work is covered with varnish so as not to lose the beauty of the image.
Exhibited for sale on Saatchi

Goodness and love

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Now those traditions of drawing, with which I started ,a little outdated.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.
