By the will of fate, many years ago, an artist by education, a creative girl (Ekaterina) met the antisocial element that embarked on the path of correction, leading to God through esotericism and mysticism (Oleg). The result of their meeting was not only the birth of a beautiful baby, but also a number of creative ideas. Catherine’s works always came directly to the customer, and Oleg nurtured the idea and raised the level of mystical knowledge. The general public saw their first joint works not according to plan, the family was on the road by car, from Russia to Italy, where they were going to open an art studio. Of personal belongings there was one suitcase with things for three and a children's suitcase with toys. Already on the borders of Belarus and Ukraine, as well as Romania and Bulgaria, they realized that something terrible was happening in the world, and the trip to Italy could be interrupted, it happened, a state of emergency and quarantine were introduced on the territory of Bulgaria in connection with the epidemic COVID-19, they had to accept the rules of the game, dictated by fate, because it became impossible to leave Bulgaria or enter any other country due to the closure of borders. Thanks to the excellent art online stores in Burgas and Varna, they decided to teach the kid and create paintings without succumbing to hysteria and panic. It was because of the current situation that I had to write acrylic first works. In order to bring the idea of Catherine and Oleg closer, we’ll give you a real life story that characterizes them. About her. Many years ago, Catherine's relatives sold a house in which paintings painted by her at a young age hung on the walls. Catherine remembered the paintings many years later, when her customer asked me to show past works. When asked who bought the house about the opportunity to take the paintings, Catherine was informed that the new owners bought the house only because of the paintings, the real estate itself, as it turned out, was not the goal of investing money, and was not worth the money paid, the goal was to buy the paintings on the walls, as selling clearly did not understand their value. About him. Four times in a row, voluntarily went into a state of clinical death with the goal of deeply knowing the unknown, zeroing energy and changing oneself internally for the better. Each of the works appears after an hour of meditation.
