Garden view Painting

As a child, I loved to draw, and also as a child, I gave up the dream of becoming an artist. But being a 3rd year student of the University of Economics and already exhausted by the questions: "What do I really want to do in life?» I've actually always had the answer. But then came the determination and a month later I went to my favorite Saint-Petersburg and immersed myself in the creative environment of my alma mater. At the Academy of Arts, I studied art history, often and for a long time watched in the workshops of artists, sculptors as masterpieces are born and, of course, this influenced me, and taking up a brush I did not part with it anymore. I found my style in painting under the influence of impressionist artists. My interest in their work, in color techniques, technical and plot techniques, largely determined my creative path. In search of inspiration, I look at the masterpieces in the walls of the Hermitage, leaf through the albums of Monet, Sisley, Pissaro. For me, landscape has become the leading genre. Nature is an inexhaustible source of inspiration. Especially, the opportunity to write from nature, traveling to picturesque places. Traveling not only gives me new creative material, but also inspires and energizes me. Especially the nature of the southern corners.
