A still life (also known by its French title, nature morte) painting is a piece that features an arrangement of inanimate objects as its subject. Usually, these items are set on a table and often include organic objects like fruit and flowers and household items like glassware and textiles.
The term “still life” is derived from the Dutch word stilleven, which gained prominence during the 16th century. While it was during this time that the still life gained recognition as a genre, its roots date back to ancient times.

The war in Ukraine
Since Feb 24 2022, as you know, each Ukrainian cannot feel safe.
At the beginning of the active war my family and I were in Kharkiv. We spent 5 months under missiles attacks in the center of Kharkiv. Both schools where learned my children were destroyed. That's why we decided to move.
Finally, we moved to Ivano-Frankivsk (the West of Ukraine). Here I feel more safe for my two sons (8 and 16 years old). Here I don't shudder after the sound of a flying fighter or explosions. But my brother and sister with her family (three small girls) are still in Zaporizhzhia. It's near the nuclear power plant which was occupied by russians. And I am scared for them. It's really close. Hope all will be good.
I am still working as a Web Developer and it's my way to help my country and for the Ukrainian army. We regularly donate everything we can.
It's strange, but this year I'm painting more than usually.
Most of my old artworks are in Zaporizhzhia in my relatives. Some of new artworks made already in Ivano-Frankivsk. So, feel free to order my artworks - I can send new artworks without delay, old artworks will take a few additional days for delivery.
Any way, I proud how our postal works during the war - it's amazing.
I am proud of our ukrainian army, people who defend us and our life.
Thank you for supporting Ukraine. Thank you, because I know that Euroupe and USA are stand with us.

Bravo à vous pour vos magnifiques peintures et dessins que J adore bonne continuation
So fresh and natural painting, great pallete !Great job !
Fedotova foreland on the Azov sea - is a long narrow strip of land, with the road and small buildings on the seaside. The left side on the picture is hidden, it's sea side. On the picture you can see the right side of the road - without buildings, it's a firth.
