Continuous operation of a large port. We call it 24/7. Round-the-clock work in three shifts of workers and mechanisms. The noise of horns, the creak of mechanisms, the cry of seagulls - everything that is associated with the activity of the port - its sounds, its music. A special place in this life process is occupied by tugs - the little helpers of the big port. Their small size with a unique powerful propulsion system is able to move the bulk of the tanker and install it with filigree precision at the quay wall for unloading, or loading at any time of the day, in rain, snow, scorching heat - it doesn 't matter. The job needs to be done. This is what fascinates me, these efforts are reflected in my painting series, simply called - 24/7.
I practice oil painting with a palette knife. This tool allows me to model the form and plans step by step, as a result of which the works acquire a specific texture and mood. At the heart of all my paintings is linen canvas - the material is strong and durable.
I try to frame all my work, unless the buyer prefers otherwise. My experience of selling my works of art allows me to draw this conclusion, because as a result you get a decorated work of art, which can immediately be used to decorate the interior, or presented as a gift.
