My whole body and consciousness is submerged into it. The wind of thoughts flutters my hair and I, like a chrysalis of a butterfly, float around, being filled with creative energy. Velvety[...]

About this artwork: Classification, Techniques & Styles

Watercolor

Watercolor is a painting in which gum arabic binds transparent pigments revealing the support of the painting. The gouache, of identical composition, is opaque. A watercolor is a water-based painting on paper. We rarely speak of a painting for a work painted in watercolor. Watercolor paintings are considered to be a unique way to creatively represent dreams, illusions, emotions and luminous feelings using water soluble pigments. However, painting with watercolors can be difficult. It's a difficult medium to master, in large part because it can be ruthless and unpredictable. Mistakes are difficult to correct and its fluid nature makes it difficult to control. Yet it is these very qualities that give the medium its undeniable charm.

Figurative

Figurative and colorful painting having taken the liberty of including all forms of art without border of cultural genre and geographic origin, without hierarchy of values between high and subculture.

Technic Painting

Painting is an art form of painting on a surface by aesthetically applying colored fluids. Painters represent a very personal expression on supports such as paper, rock, canvas, wood, bark, glass, concrete and many other substrates. Work of representation or invention, painting can be naturalistic and figurative, or abstract. It can have narrative, descriptive, symbolic, spiritual, or philosophical content.

Russia

Our world is filled with moments, various emotions, moods, and vibes of different people. Nowadays, we tend to take pictures in order to remember all that. The digital photos imply realism – you see the world as it is. But beauty is only skin deep. You are not able to see the metaphysics of the moment looking at the pictures.

In my watercolor paintings, I always give a sense of the current state of human souls, models’ doubts, anxieties, joy, and sorrow, what actually hides behind the smiles. In classic portraits, you can see the eyes of people. I set a more challenging goal as follows: not showing models’ eyes and faces, to depict the immediate emotional state, the current state of the model’s soul through the pose, chemistry between the photographer and the model.

Looking through my nude models’ paintings, you’ll find neither vulgarity, nor striking surrealism, nor vicious, vivid colors. Ancient Greek erotic art and sculptures have always been a major inspiration for me.

From the esthetic point of view, all my nude models’ artworks contain sexual energy – the one I always feel inside and invest in my paintings. My goal is to kindle sexual energy inside you and persuade you that light, love, and lust are the crucial drivers for people to move forward and get over difficulties. I’m sure that my paintings also cultivate a love for naked human bodies. And if you love naked people with all your heart, love sex, and love affairs, you’ll never do anything bad to people. You spread kindness, striving for love. Sexual female energy is healing for your soul.

Watercolor implies using a lot of water during the drawing process. Water keeps vibes and feelings. Watercolor artworks are light and breathing, the very opposite to heavy and airless oil paintings.
