Artist Statement:
I have been a professional
contemporary fine artist and
painter since 1998.
I was born in Moscow, Russia.
But I spent my childhood and
youth in Belarus between
Vileyka and Minsk.
In 1996 I immigrated to
Belgium. I live, love and work
in Bruges.

motive of the painting. The
portrait merely serves as
reason to make the painting.
It is the imagery concept. My
paintings greatly appeal to
the beholders. Conscientiously
and with a great sense for
beauty I portray my models.
The resulting portrait is not
an exact copy of reality, but
instead a visual impression of
it. By including things like a
flower or a butterfly or
putting a lace on the model’s
eyes I try to add an unusual
or artificial character to my
portraits. I learn about
myself depicting images from
my imagination. I don't expect
to find answers, rather look
for questions. The choice of
colors stimulates energy,
emotions and appetite for
life. My work reflects my own
story - a ...
