CP1 (2020) Painting by Alexander Babinskiy

Alexander Babinskiy was born in 1964 in Moscow.
In his early years he went to art schools and took art history classes, however, Alexander chose a different path as a profession.
Having worked in journalism and public relations for years, he dared to return to the passion of his youth – paintings. Soon his works in the genre of abstract expressionism were highly appreciated by colleagues from the Creative Union of Artists of the Russian Federation. Alexander Babinskiy enthusiastically works in various techniques, preferring acrylic abstractions and non-figurative plasticization using a combination of oil and cold wax. His works can be found in collections in Russia, Europe, China and USA.

«I work in different techniques. I really love acrylic paint, for its energy and emotional rage. I myself am not a very patient and cold-blooded person. Therefore, acrylic paint that requires, as it seems to me, decisiveness and baldheadedness is just for me. Sometimes I have a desire to work with oil as well. Plus, I do love the use of cold wax as a medium. For me this technique has some inexplicable attracting force. It is difficult to describe it, but oil with wax give some kind of cosmic magic to the painting. Layers, one after another, create a fairy tale on a panel in which there is neither beginning nor end.»
