The fact is that I was born and raised in a country that no longer exists. If someone else remembers, there was such a terrible country the Soviet Union. It was a real empire of lies and evil. This is how the children looked on the holiday. I deliberately do not draw adults from that era. Adults always had a choice. The children had no choice. They had to match the adult's ideas about them and look accordingly. And these ideas could not be independent. All for all decided the ruling party. I wanted to call this picture an "unhappy girl." But then I remembered that we were still happy. even in this form.
The picture is painted in oil colors on canvas of high quality. Painted in a traditional way-brushes and palette knife. The size (100х70cm) allows you to organize with this picture a small enough wall in the interior of the apartment or house.
I put in my pictures all the positive and kind that is inside me. These are my children. Let it bring you warmth and love

Igor Andrianov, known as Shulman, is a contemporary Russian painter based in Prague. He is the most acclaimed living figurative artist from Eastern Europe. For Shulman, who enjoys experimenting with a variety of subject matter and painting styles, creativity is essential. He took inspiration from a variety of art movements and used pieces from several of them to construct new, wholly original works. In several of his paintings, he uses a vibrant, vivid background that strips the scene of all other elements in order to draw our attention to the subject. Shulman takes characters from everyday life and references the school of realism to create paintings that are both inventive and creative while also being highly realistic.
Igor Andrianov Shulman was born in 1959, in Russia, where he graduated from the Art College named after A.G.Venezianov. He has been living and working in Prague since 1999; he considers it as the place that inspires artists the most. Shulman has exhibited his works in galleries, museums, and international art fairs. His works are part of private collections in more than 50 countries, including the UK, USA, Canada, China, Brazil.
