"Composition #20" Painting

The place where I was born is Nukus, old town in Karakalpakstan, oasis in Uzbek desert with more then thousand years' history. Since my childhood I remember typical view of long archeological sites, where scientists and ancient art historians studied the culture and artefacts of past civilizations. Breath of eternity emanating from finds gave rise to my interest in technics of masters of the past, from the very first drawings created by human to the height of world art.
