The Balvenie 14 Painting

Why painting? I devoted a huge chunk of my life to architectural practice. Working as an architect and heading the architectural company “Archivita” founded by me, I have created and implemented many projects from private houses to large multifunctional complexes in different cities of Belarus, Russia, Switzerland, Austria, and the Netherlands. But architecture is about being addicted and enduring the cruelty of the machine of prohibitions, standards, endless protocols, and agreements. Be dependent on the customer, his tastes, and capabilities. From the supervisory authorities and their mood. From the capabilities and qualifications of builders etc. And I can say that in my architectural work I have played enough with "Large-scale Installations" Therefore painting. Because I started painting long before I became an architect, and if architecture is a profession, then painting is love. Thanks to the wonderful teachers with whom I was lucky to meet in life, I really love the History of World Art, so it is unbearably difficult for me to name my favorite masters. But, if just start listing, then I would start like this: Matisse, Le Corbusier, Diebenkorn, Cave of Altamira, ... That is probably all I can say ... To say by using words. Because there are other Muses for thoughts that can be clothed in the form of words. But there is still a lot of things, that I would like to tell you. Fortunately, there is another language. The language, that will not let you lie, The language, that doesn’t need any translation.
