Andrei Klenov

Born in Moscow in 1967. My father was a geomorphologist. And he was also an amateur artist. My father often took me with him to the open air (both winter and summer). And also together with him we went to exhibitions of various artists and museums. Thus, I have loved the art of painting since childhood. I took an example from my father - I tried to paint him with paints (and also loved to draw caricatures and devils with horns with pencils).
Currently, I prefer the genre: landscape (I spent a lot of time outside the city in nature and fell in love with painting nature en plein air). I really love Russian nature. I consider Levitan, Korovin and other Russian landscape painters to be my spiritual teachers (except my father).
I am a member of the Professional Union of Artists of Russia.
Many paintings are in private collections in different countries of the world.
In the end, I had to leave Russia. I currently live and work in New York City.

- finished the courses of folk painting: and I heard the Khokhloma painting, Gorodetsky painting, Severodvinsk painting, as well as Gzhel.
- also studied at ZNUI (Correspondence University of Arts in Moscow) in the class of easel painting.

Art exhibitions at the cultural Center at the Armenian Embassy in Moscow.
