The portrait painting plays a very significant role in my works. It is interesting for me to depict human natures in my works. The model may be not always people whom I know well. I may see a view of human face or bright display of its features which I would like and to use in portrait painting. But indeed the human character may not be similar to the image painted on my canvas. I create a new character. Sometimes people depicted in my works have collective features or even invented by me.
Every person wants to be free. Some want to be free in expressing their desires, while others do not have enough real freedom ...
The bird behind the woman symbolizes her dream of freedom. A gold bracelets on the hands of women are an allegory of the shackles shackled her.

Canvas space is not a plain rectangle. An Artist shall break it through by means of its talent, to put its hand or head inside, to reach sky or horizon. Landscapes are neither far nor close. The view of landscape is an image, a mirage transferred from nature seen by the artist to the canvas.

Painting still-lives is a kind of relaxation for me. Therefore I often devote myself to still-lives after finishing any difficult series. When I observe lighting of still-life objects, changing of their colour, I get merged with them and feel their quiet life. It is interesting for me to paint still-lives, to select objects for them. Sometimes still-lives are created by the life itself and sometimes I see any interesting object and start immediately to select any surrounding composition for it in my mind.
In the process of painting still-lives I try to reproduce reaction of their forms on light and air environment, their vision. But I feel that the art itself transfers a sort of substance into the space – magic Sfumato inspired by time breath. Such time, both on picture and in real life, both flexible and solid, shows a sacral world to us. Forms vibrate, search for their place and get anxious in case of failure to find it. I try to show such anxiety and breath of nature by means of draw-downs, light and colours.

The notion of “light” has many meanings. That is why I chose as scene of action at my works the interior of the church. Here are two aspects of the notion of “light” crossed – spiritual and material. The concept of light in its various hypostases can also be seen as protection. Very often in the history of mankind not a fortress defended it but spirituality became protection. By my project I want to find answers to the questions: What is light? What notion “light” means for a person? How person represents “light” for himself? ...
