Each piece of painting for me is life!

The moments of my personal feelings are constantly on my pictures. From the very beginning I live within them. And I would like to share this life with my viewers. Landscapes are the big portion of my creation and they are different. I love different conditions of Nature, I love visiting any kind of places. As an example Provence is a special point of my creation as it is considered to be the most romantic place in the world! It calls us to smell the lavender odours, to listen to the sea. What wonderful painters were those, who were inspired by Provence! Being there where Van Gogh and Claude Monet were painting one can't but create masterpieces. The desire to share all the feelings appears as well as the famous painters did.And when I come back home full of amazing emotions I am greatly impressed by our own nature. It doesn't matter what season of the year it is.It is morning. Autumn mist is still spreading over the river but soon the snow will cover the ground and two pretty birds are sitting close to each other in the tree. And it is already winter with mild snow and bright frosty light. How pleasant it is to walk through the birch lane and to watch the peaks of the trees! Soon the spring will come and everything will be in blossom. One can't but pass by the house surrounded by blossoming lilac. And then the summer with bright flowers will come. There are lots of poppies, fleurs-de-lis, lilies of the valley, forget-me-nots, chamomiles - so there are a lot of opportunities to paint! And how pleasant it is to relax on a hot summer day near the water enjoying tender spatterdocks!

I wish to express this delicate charm and share it with my viewer. And I am always so much happy when my viewer gets real pleasure from my pictures.
