Portrait of the nephew Painting

I grown in a small village near the Ural mountains, deep in countryside, and then was educated in fine arts in the best institution of the cultural capital of the Russia. My art is academic by its recognition, concerned with the visual and tactile elements of perception of the nature, and them involves a painting process to envelope and engage the viewer through the use of space, light and colour. With this approach every picture started with an observation of the subject and then one is engaged with the process of depiction and the way in which this integrates perception, memory, and imagination.
