Sunset in the mountains Painting

I live in the industrial city of Chelyabinsk, Russia, so I enjoy spending my weekends and holidays away from the city – in the countryside, going mountain hiking, travelling to other countries. Hence the love for nature and inspiration for future artworks for which I use my own reference photographs. Basically, I paint landscapes and seascapes in oils. On my canvas, I prefer vivid colors because they create an uplifting atmosphere, which we lack in everyday urban gray life. I hope the viewers can feel strong positive emotions, the colors of happiness and joy by looking at my paintings.
