before the storm Painting

Ivan Shuikov, artist, was born in 1968 in Moscow, Russia. At 10, he became a student of the artist V.N. Kryukovsky , in whose creative workshop he received his first painting lessons. Lesson 1 - Do not drain the soul, in search of hidden meaning. Try to get rid of this and discover the love of everything that surrounds you. Maybe you are looking for something that was constantly in you, and you just need to feel it. Lesson 2 - This may seem paradoxical, but remember that fantasy looks much more true than reality. Because real life is built less successfully than art. Ivan is an artist who does not just fantasize. In his works, he uses the classic means of visual expression. He can plunge into the world of his dreams and memories and with greatness writes the mysterious side of life or come into the light and enjoy life as a child. The artist’s work is a person’s attempt to understand himself by creating images of this world and his own image. Artworks are in private collections in Russia, USA, Spain, Great Britain, Germany, France, Japan, China, etc.
