You always notice the most beautiful things on the run, when you didn't even have to paint. That is exactly what happened with this painting.

I was running home through the Vatican after a busy, picturesque day and my gaze fell by chance on this plot. A stunningly beautiful fountain protruding from the red wall. 
Side light from the setting yellow sun. Such light always gives the most interesting effects - the colors become extremely saturated, the shadows stretch and become huge, every crack is visible on the plaster. The water flowing from the mouth of the stone dragon sparkles in the sun and occasionally pigeons fly in to refresh themselves.

You know, some evenings are so calm, peaceful and full of love for life. When you plunge into such an evening with your head, confidence is involuntarily born in you ... that after such a tomorrow simply cannot be bad. This evening was just like that. Of course, I could not resist and painted this view.

Once my teacher said: "If you love to paint, it does not mean that you are an artist. You are an artist, just if you can not live without painting." And this phrase is exactly about me. I create because I can't live without it. I even start to feel bad if Idon't paint for a few days. I love the world that surrounds me, love its diversity, love the sun, love people and new acquaintances. And I love my profession... because art allows me to share all these feelings with the viewers. Fine Art is the language I speak. It is my only way not to keep my thoughts and feelings inside, but to throw them out. To deliver important thoughts to the world.
