Material: hardboard (durable wooden surface) That day we decided to go on plein air at Kolomenskoe Park. The summer happened to be record-breaking hot, and awaking in the mornings we saw outside the window the sky filled with the smoke from the forest fires around Moscow. But this night the long-awaited fresh wind had come. The perfect visibility in the morning was inspiring: there was completely no smoke, and the smell of burning was almost imperceptible. After some wandering in the park, we finally found a wild place, not yet touched by the hands of Moscow “culturizers”. From there was a wide view from the hill, dotted with the various plants. On the horizon were shimmering, high panel buildings, melting in the blue of the sky, and by the river were floating white pleasure ships. It was hot and tiresome to work, but the study went it should and was absorbing.

Recently I’ve been interested in the question: how to paint so that the painting would give such strong feelings as the music of Bach or Schnittke? It is the problem I try to solve when I paint my pictures – how to fully express with paints the things that give rise to my emotions. How to express the full variety of these feelings turns out to be what is most difficult. It can be silent contemplative joy, nervous waiting or union of beauty and dramatic effect. That’s why beauty and convergence with nature for me are only some of the means of expression and the revelation of the image. Have you noticed how weather influences your mood, how objects hold memories about what they were associated with, how the world around us influences our emotions, senses, feelings? Compare your mood when warm sunbeams wake you up with when the whole sky is clouded over and rain is pattering on the windowsill. In this sense nature is a splendid figurative method. All I have to do is use it right and to combine it with all the other, no less significant expressive methods, that I control, which will help me to convey exactly what I want to share. I want to deal with such paintings, in contact with which a wave of searing pain will rise to the throat or feelings of joy or peace will overflow; that a viewer, seeing my picture, will live through it with me as its author and performer.
