Alexey Bykov`s technique to create colorful and realistic sculptures in hard wood makes the material look soft and plastic, making an illusion of being sculpted, not carved. Influenced by the classic school and folk art, he manages to develop his style where classic shapes melt into exaggerated forms smoothly flowing one into another achieving a natural harmoniously accomplished look. Works held in private collections in Kazakhstan, Russia, Great Britain and the United States. _________________________________________ Upstream People Gallery.12th Annual Faces Juried Online International Art Exhibition. 2010. Special Recognition Award. "ALEXEY BYKOV aka ALEX BIGBULL of Almaty, Kazakhstan uses various media to present realistic and expressive portraiture. One of the most effective is his wood piece Ascetic in which the exaggerated eyes, nose, concave cheeks and convex chin all create a very iconic look."
