Artist Statement

   The love of art came to me at very young age when I realized that with a pencil I can create the a whole new world on the piece of paper. It was always something magical there for me. Perhaps I can share with my emotions and feelings with others trough my paintings. For example when I paint a tiger I start to feel power and strength . For my paintings I use oil, gouache, pencil or pen. I prefer to paint with oil because it gives deep three dimensional texture.
   The first person who sparked my interest in Art was my grandmother. She has been a professional painter for almost half a century. I remember just sitting there long evenings with her and creating some art work... I'm also inspired by a fashion photographer Dmitriy Plyusnin. In my opinion he is the most outstanding photographer who knows how to take the right angle and reach it to the perfection.
   My goals are to master my skills in media and to be able to take pictures and videos on the professional level. I intend to do web production because  it offers a lot of creativity on the way of learning.
