One of rare still-lives among his recent paintings, this piece explores fine nuances of grey, which is one of most complicated colors for a painter. Rigorously academically trained in the traditions of Russian School, artist explores Realism, Impressionism and Expressionism from the point of view of Contemporary and Abstract painting. His deeply personal style incorporates unconventional compositions, vivid texture, gestural painting marks, emphasized color and other features of 21st century painting, along with a solid Academic foundation and use of the Old Masterโs techniques.
