Fleeting impressions (2021) 图画 由 Svetlana Gudilova

Debussy is an impressionist composer. His music seems to flow like jets of water. She shimmers and her phrases flow from one to another without stopping. And it is impossible to pass by his work "Reflections in the water", so as not to paint a picture. And the most beautiful reflections appear at sunset...


My paintings are filled with music. When I paint pictures, I listen to a piece of music, and if the piece I am listening to is vocal, then I sing ... I am a laureate of international competitions in opera vocal and performing another piece, my picture is filled with live sounds and vibrations of music ...
And if the piece is instrumental, then I look for its piano score, and after the painting is finished, I perform that piece of music that inspired me on the piano and, accordingly, I also fill it with music ..


Even while studying music, I learned about myself such a feature that when I listen to a piece of music, picturesque colorful images appear in my head. I believed that this happens with every person who listens to music. And only at the institute I learned that this feature is very rare and even scientifically studied. Its name is SYNESTHESIA.


Synesthesia is a type of color hearing in which musical sounds evoke color associations in a person.
In the paintings, as a color basis for the background, I take the sound tonality in which the work is written, and then convey the music of classical composers with the help of paints and colors.

The most beautiful time at sea is during sunset. The rays of the sun paint the waves in different colors. They are reflected from the water and the sea seems to glow from the inside. I like this time of day so much that I never get tired of drawing it and finding new types and colors.

In my opinion - pastel is much better than other types of paints, conveys brightness and richness, which I love so much in paintings. Therefore, for the image of the sea, I chose pastel. And if you put a pastel painting in a frame behind the glass, not forgetting to put a mat - an interlayer that would separate the painting from the glass, not allowing the pastel layer to come into contact with the glass, then such paintings retain their richness of colors much longer than oil painting.
Unlike oil paintings, the paint on them will not crack and burst.


And also - the twilight conveys human emotions so well. As the sun goes down, everything changes as quickly as the emotional experience.

My paintings are the material embodiment of music, so you won't see animals or birds on them. This way I want the extra details not to interfere with the color perception.


My grandfather was an artist and generic talent allows me to see the picture of the world in a special way, and the lack of knowledge of any professional canons did not develop in me fears of doing something wrong ...


With the development of the Internet, there was an opportunity to learn from different masters, absorbing various techniques and methods from them, and develop in those directions that are interesting to me. I didn’t spend precious time at the institute drawing what I don’t need, but for a long time I developed my style.


Not everyone is given a color hearing, so now, I want to share this quality of mine with other people and show them how beautiful a piece of music can look.
I want other people to be able to see what they hear ...
