God of Uncertainty Print

I am a Russian artist based in Sacramento, California. I was born in the Soviet Union, in Tashkent, Uzbekistan and lived in Moscow until the political climate of the country became a nightmare. My creative spirit was diminished during this time, but found new life in the United States. I draw upon the traditions of academic art and Impressionism, with a particular focus on the use of color. To me, the color theory is an almost spiritual approach to painting. I try to capture the beauty of the relationship between warm and cold colors, often in night scenes illuminated by moonlight. I wouldn't be able to convey pain and suffering, but rather a timeless atmosphere that viewers can take away and appreciate it as a way of escape.
