"My art is a meditation. To create work is like to create poetry or music, a whirlwind of feelings and emotions in colors and painting thanks to the skill of the artist."
What inspires you?
Craving for beauty inspires me to create my paintings.
Describe your creative process.
The most compelling moment in working on a landscape is the connection between what you feel, what you see, and what you convey on the canvas. And in the end, the painting is being created. Now I work more on the natural landscape and in the open air. I usually start with oil glazing and then continuing to work with a brush and palette knife on canvas. The work can be finished on-site in one or several sessions. And also, later in the workshop. I also create quick sketches that I am using for further work at my workshop.
Who are some artists that have influenced your work?
Ever since my childhood, I have used to get inspired by different artists and wanted to be like them. During my adulthood, they were Vrubel, Vasnetsov, Roerich, and others.
