About

I was born in Moscow into a family of musicians in 1986.

Till 15 years professionally involved in music at age 16 decided to devote himself to painting.

Painting is a supreme joy of my life.I am studying the arts from ancient Egypt to nowadays, trying to find an inspiration in every piece of art I see. My inspiration is the ballets of the Spanish choreographer Nacho Duato, fashion, antique stained-glass windows, Maroccan art. My favorite artists are El Greco, Jan van Eyck, Paul Cezanne, Henri Matisse, Ernest Kirchner. My favorite art school is Fauvism
