Emptiness Painting

Armen Sevanyan is a contemporary painter born and residing in Yerevan, Armenia. In addition to informal education under a traditional master, Armen obtained a BFA from the State Academy of Fine Arts of Armenia and the Imperial Academy of Arts in Saint Petersburg, Russia. Armen draws inspiration from his soul and wishes to encourage others to find the light in their own paintings. "When I stand in front of a blank canvas and lay out the paints, something or someone emerges and transports me to a distant place where it is light and warm. Upon my return, I behold a picture that I have painted, and I may either like or dislike it."
