The returning of the herb Painting

The love to fine arts, the irresistible desire to paint woke up in my early youth and since then this is my profession and beloved business. The main inspiration for me was the atmosphere of thе places where I spent summer since childhood - in the homeland of my grandfathers - 700 km south of Moscow - the land of the fields, where the sky is like a huge dome, the land looks like a plate and you can see the entire horizon around you. Blue herbs, warm spicy wind, voices carrying away by the wind, sunsets to the whole sky, dawns, bends of apple trees - all this echoing choir of lights, colors, sounds, lines - so subtle and intimate that you can express this only by the language of colors, music, poetry. That is why, this land gave birth to many composers, poets, artists like Rahmaninov, Tuthev, Petrov-Vodkin, whose work is distinguished by special tenderness and depth. This atmosphere created me as an artist, forming my own perception and way of conveying feelings to the viewer. The large role in my art played by the line in the image. The line can convey the finest feelings, light and shade, a hint. Thats the why, besides the works which are paints by oil on a canvas in my creativity there is a lot of works on smooth firm surfaces. Pastel, ink, a watercolor have the own special refined inimitable language. Many of my works I paint for a long time, bringing to the level when the music I heard will sound in the heart of the viewer.
