Artist (Painting, Drawing) •

Born 1987 •

Expressionist artist.My style is a combination of experimental painting and drawing.Philosophical approach to abstract painting.Professional artist, energetic and positive.

My new philosophy of abstract painting is the breath of combinations of color, form, sound, smell, the essence of fantasy. This is a soft and temperamental picturesque graphics.Expressionism is always a struggle. The fight is soft and strict.

Images that inspire me:Landscapes especially sea.Fish are a symbol of life.Still lifes - favorite drink wine, favorite combination of wine, cheese and apple.Ships - in my paintings I show my love for travel in this way, today I was inspired by such countries as the Czech Republic, Georgia, Armenia and Egypt.
