Marine expressiveness
The project consists of a series of 25 paintings.
Everyone chooses his way, and I go to the sea!.. The sea, oh, this heady aroma of waves, sea wrack and foam. A rising tide and the fresh wind blowing the face over... In the works of the artist three-dimensional images of yachts and colorful sails are reflected not only in the sea waters, but also in the sky and floating clouds, playing with the dominant hue. After viewing, the visual images of paintings do not get out from viewers’ thinking, and an example of this vivid impression – the works "Yacht Under the Yellow Sail" and "Red Sailboat in the Bay of New York". In expressive abstraction of the artist’s works a spectator totally immerses in his own world of fantasies and desires. The series of works, devoted to marine themes, is performed in the author's style: European impasto painting, a rich gamma of colors. Consummate easyness of strokes, a game of color spots and plastic solutions reflect the rich inner world of the artist and his gaming mood. After visiting the exhibitions organized under the auspices of the curator VETROF, one wants to come back again and to write poetic lines: The splash of sea waves, and the nature speaks itself: I can be in the various hypostasis – In souls; in works of the creative minds, I play with colors of the light and shade, And with the soul of sea I’m playing on the canvas...
