Boyan Yanev

Varna, Bulgaria
Artist (Painting, Drawing)
Born 1963

Boyan Yanev is a contemporary Bulgarian artist. Yanev graduated from the Art Academy in Sofia, Bulgaria, under the guidance of academician Rumen Skorchev, specializing in illustration. The roots of his deep attraction to illustration trace back to a fervent love for books, a passion that led him to illustrate stories from a very young age. His earliest encounters with historical movies allowed him to glean details about attire from specific eras and diverse social personas. This fascination evolved into a lifelong commitment to delving into human history, a subject he continues to read and study to this day. As he delved deeper into his explorations, he gradually unearthed esoteric insights that elucidated the intricate relationship between humanity and the divine. He skillfully captured the ambiance, settings, and characters from stories and novels spanning various epochs, including the works of Franz Kafka, Mark Twain, Joseph Conrad, Robert Burns, and Robert Louis Stevenson, among others.

In his role as an illustrator, Boyan Yanev extends his expertise beyond graphics to incorporate a rich array of colors. He employs tempera, acrylic, oil paints, and other mediums to achieve his creative vision. Interestingly, even his easel oil paintings, which are crafted with the aim of scenic representation, subtly reflect his illustration background. This translates into a narrative quality that persists within his themes. This distinctive approach is perhaps his means of expressing his individuality and carving out a unique artistic niche. While his preferences may not come as a surprise, given his admiration for Renaissance and Baroque artists, he extends respect to all artists whom he holds in high regard and cherishes.
