Attention! This work looks much better live. This picture is called "life is ...". The real barcode of matches is taken as a basis. This is not an advertisement and not a way to draw someone's attention to the issue of ecology. As an artist, I always speak with the viewer with images, so that the viewer remembers something or something to think about, because an artist must first of all inspire people with art for exploits and for some deeds. In this work, I wanted to reflect the sarcasm of life. Imagine a beautiful forest with its mighty trees and then it turns into matches. But so symbolically there is a barcode on the packaging. The most global theme in this picture is that our whole life is a labeled product. The idea that our world is a consumer world. We are all trees that will become matches. And we will burn. By the way, the most keen-sighted will be able to spot an owl, birch, oak and pine here. No kidding, I didn't just draw sticks)))) 50% of the sale of this work will go to charity. Attention!

About this artwork: Classification, Techniques & Styles

Marker

Drawing made using a large felt with its own ink source. The ink may or may not be indelible.

Acrylic

Paint using traditional pigments mixed with synthetic resins.

Technic Drawing

Drawing is a technique of visual representation on a flat support. The term "drawing" designates both the action of drawing, the resulting graphic work, and the shape of any object. It is also a representation on a surface of the shape (and possibly the light and shadow values) of an object or figure, rather than their color. There are a large number of drawing techniques: “Linear drawing” represents objects by their outlines, edges and some characteristic lines; beyond this limit, the drawing develops by representing the volume by shadows, often by means of hatching, incorporates colors, and joins, without clear transition, the painting.

Vasiliy Pimenov

Russia

My paternal great-grandfather was a royal clerk under Nicholas II. Perhaps not the most outstanding position, but the great thing is that the craving for drawing was inherited to me. Well, this is one of the theories that has been voiced. In any case, I drew from early childhood.
The talent for drawing was recognized by everyone, starting from kindergarten. But my parents, a Soviet engineer and an English teacher, decided that painting is something that has no future. And here is mathematics, geometry, etc. ... this is something without which it is impossible to live. Therefore, it was decided not to send to art school. And what could simple laborers know about the future? The country was going through terrible times. 90s, 00s. Work became less and less. Who to be was not clear. I was not particularly asked who I want to be. And I didn’t know what to choose. They just decided for me: You will be an economist. Being an economist is probably great, but what to do when you love to draw from birth? Recently, I decided it was not too late to become who I was born. Moreover, I have something to say.
There is a version that Yuri Ivanovich Pimenov, an artist of the Wanderer, some kind of our distant relative.
