About The Artwork
In 2023, after 20 years, he returned to the illustrations of the Brothers Grimm fairy tale "Rapunzel". I wanted to write a couple of stories from a fairy tale, although the series had already been conventionally formed and was published both in books and magazines. I chose this plot of the meeting between the witch with Rapunzel’s cut off braid and the prince in the tower, before he turns out to be blind at the bottom of the tower where the girl was imprisoned. I decided to portray the witch as not scary or elderly. Since appearance in this context is not so important.The plot of the fairy tale itself is, of course, a metaphor, an allegorical language as a prototype of relationships in society, sometimes in the family, a set of behavior patterns, hidden meanings and conflicts of interest. In real life, this leads to sad consequences. At the same time, in a fairy tale, the end is most often the victory of good over evil, which does not always happen in life.

Russia
1979 Born in Moscow. Committed to the Russian realistic school, graduate of the Russian Academy of Painting, Sculpture and Architecture, he aspires for absolute fidelity in reproducing the reality.I am driven by the desire to do this very kind of creative activity, one which would tell the truth about the surrounding world, Simon says, Any reproduction is subjective indeed, but I do hope that my painting is close to nature and harmony. I do what I am interested in, what I believe in. Thus I try to find unusual motifs, themes, I travel a lot, read a lot, watch a lot.The artists range of interests is wide: historical picture, still life, landscape, illustration. Unusual is his approach to solution of each new canvas, no formulas, nothing typical. Some canvases appeal at once by the consummate craft, fullness of colour and light, and feel. Others require focused attention, contemplation, rational approach.
