wayfarer Drawing

My name is Andrey. Was born in 1969. I live and work in Voronezh, Russia . Graduated from Voronezh Art College. Was privately trained in restoration at the Russian Museum in Saint Petersburg. Since 1998, I have been working as a restorer of easel tempera paintings. I teach restoration at a theological school. At the same time, I am a passionate artist. I have collaborated with galleries, I have exhibited and sold my works. My artistic preferences were formed in a long-standing and great love for the art of the old masters. Much of my inspiration as a source lies in old European art. This is partly due to the necessity to know the old painting techniques utilized by me in the restoration. I love old European art. I rely on it in many ways . But today we feel the need, having a graft of classics, to think through the eyes of today. To see the world taking into account all the rich cultural and artistic experience, but still through the eyes of a modern person. Thus some of thr works you see have open quotations to the classic art. There is also a lot of searching for the plastic beauty of today's new eyes, already tainted by modern and postmodern. In my works, I am busy searching for my beauty. Inspired by the beauty of the world so exciting and vibrant.
