Zhar-ptitsa

Concept

I like to depict simple forms that evoke strong emotions and philosophical thoughts. I am inspired by the work of surrealist and cubist artists of the 20th century.
I always wanted to be an artist. Once, as a child, I saw an artist working at an easel and realized that this was what I needed. When I entered the art school, I became interested in Italian painting. I studied a lot of books about Leonardo da Vinci. My graduation work was a fresco on wet plaster, made in the old technique from Leonardo da Vinci.
In my work I use many techniques: painting, collage, mosaic, graphics. As a basis I use paper, canvas, wood. I like to mix materials and textures. I prefer works of medium size and slightly above average.
I live and work in Vienna, Austria. I have been making art since 2002. I graduated from the Art College and the Humanitarian University in St. Petersburg.
I work a lot. My paintings are bright and original and attract many visitors. I have constant reviews. I enjoy working with galleries and get a lot of new emotions and acquaintances.
I take part in various exhibitions.
