I have always drawn, many images have been with me since childhood, step by step I learned to depict what I feel and see, my images and memories.  Painting became multi-layered, paintings began to live their own lives.  I paint thinly, not pasty, not at once, often dozens of layers, they help create depth and space, I like to create three-dimensional space in two-dimensional space .. I love textures - stones, trees, glass, leather, I like when painting can be  examine and find new details.  With just 5 colors, I create the whole variety of the palette, I like to write with my fingers;  In general, it seems to me that the more a work of art is man-made, the more alive it is, for me paintings are windows to a better, magical world.
