Ships in the sand Print

I am a professional contemporary living and working in the Canary Islands. I was born in Minsk, Belarus. After earning a degree in architecture, I worked as an architect and designer for many years. In 2016, I moved to the island of Tenerife and fully dedicated myself to painting. I actively participate in international art competitions and projects, which I believe are great incentives for creativity and self-development. My work has been exhibited in Italy, Spain, the United States, Indonesia, India and South Africa, and I have received multiple awards for my participation. What I Do My work explores the tension between oversaturation and clarity. Sometimes, objects disappear from my paintings, leaving only lines, color spots, emotions, and energy. At other times, an object's form becomes the focus, expressed boldly and hyperbolically through the same tools. How I Work I paint in an expressive and impulsive manner, capturing strong emotions without delay. My process is fast and concentrated, blending structure with chaos to reflect my character and attitude toward life. My Technique I use a multi-layered approach, building structural compositions with large color spots and refining them with dynamic lines and graphic elements to guide the viewer's eye. My materials include watercolor, acrylic, pastel, charcoal, liners, and markers—often combined in a single piece, balancing figurative elements with abstraction.
