Here everything rests on the subtlest vibrations of color, transmitting a subtle air environment. A special sincerity, the warmth of his works, as well as sincerity, gives his canvases a special charm and not passing value. The warm silvery-brown range of his works is noble. Delicate still lifes with flowers, decided in close, light colors. Everything is subordinate to the main - the color environment, the object lives and dissolves in it, combining, like air, things, spots and silhouettes into a single pictorial fabric of the work.
