Inspiration draw from a variety of sources such as music, the works of famous painters and art , personal emotional experiences . But the main source of inspiration remains untouched wild nature of the Altai Mountains . I make annual hiking for several weeks to the mountains sketching there from nature.
All my artworks made in quite a rare technique of oil pastels .The works are created exclusively by the fingers without the use of available tools such as brushes, etc.
I believe that this material is undervalued and little is disclosed . To learn oil pastel is not easy but it is surprisingly interesting and will surprise you with its originality at the intersection of drawing and painting by oil. I consider it my duty to improve in oil pastels advocating this kind of art all over the world.
