I love painting “interesting faces”. I choose to paint people whose faces tell stories. I usually know the story of the person I paint, but in this particular situation he was a stranger. I asked him to pose for me and he didn’t deny. He seemed to me as a man full of experiences. In every line I drew I was imagining the difficulties of his life. He looked like a person who lived an intense and unconventional life. I was thinking that unfortunate situations should have led him to loneliness. This is the reason I love portraiture. It’s a way of getting close to other people, a way to find more about their personalities and through this process I discover things for myself as well.
Awarded “best drawing” in IGOR’s 12th Exhibition - Winfield Gallery, Carmel CA USA and also won “1st Award” in Other media category in Richeson's Figure/Portrait 2018 exhibition, Kimberly USA.
