Waterlily in the Giverny Pond Painting

All my life I live and work in the most beautiful city of Russia: Saint Petersburg. My city is very inspiring to me to be creative and to explore the beautiful. I often visit the galleries of the Hermitage, where I can study the creations of the world's great artists. Thus, from early childhood I am inspired by the work of the impressionists and modernists С.Monet, Renoir, Degas, Van Gogh, Alphonse Mucha, G.Klimt, Vrubel, Serov... I also love to travel and learn new places, countries, cultures and traditions; adore Italy and Greece, which is often reflected in my works. I do paintings in the spirit of the Impressionists, love the technique of impasto and I'm crazy about turquoise shades :) My main topics are European urban, rural and sea landscapes (Italian cities, landscapes of Provence, Tuscany and the Cote d'Azur). In my painting prevail bright, romantic, sunny scenes because my credo in the art: "Create only something that brings positive emotions!"
