Pretty innovative in relation to my other works

Although I personally believe that this painting rather imitates some styles, an experienced eye will be able to discern a synthesis of the recognized visuals and my interpretation. So despite my own self-questioning about authenticity this work has quite a right to exist. However, maybe I'm just already soured...

Oozing, 2025

Extremely evil and greedy work. It's not about what it really is. It's just that such exuding inevitably causes projection in the negating traits. Well, down the line, it's energy, and there's plenty of it here

Fiesta, 2024

Of my rare works in which the composition is organized in a disordered way, especially emphasizing texture and color shimmers.

Despite the celebratory colors you can feel a certain coldness that is familiar to anyone who has been to the art performances.

Garganta, 2024

I didn’t disappear, although I quite distant lately.

I'm exploring crayon techniques, pastels and wax both, so have been spending less time on digital. I think the results will be seen later.

More and more often I am puzzled by the problem of colour reproduction on different screens. Probably not the newest feeling here, however, as I think I have managed to reach some kind of consensus with the work intact.

Shuffle, 2024

A little bit naive, since I’m still getting used to pastels. It’s amazing to see that saturation and intensity remain almost the same as in my digital artworks. Glad to open this season!

Flowery pattern, 2023

I’m in pretty confused mood today

Organize myself through expression, no biggie

Intermediate, 2023

In order to find out the age of tree, you have to cut it and count its rings

To know the age of a man you have to wound him and taste his blood

Pain from feelings, 2022

I don’t get I don’t get I don’t get I don’t get it

Why things are happening this way, it’s so unbearable

Untitled, Pastel

23.4" x 16.5" (A2)

Primer layer is actually gouache (and acrylic)

There are far to many routes to find figures in this work, but in fact it was kinda conceived for this purpose. Perhaps first thing one sees is landscape with hills and rivers or monolith in the fields. Then comes a creature that resembles an old testament angel. Of course, there are dancing silhouettes in beautiful dresses, and faces with frightening grimaces. If you dig deeper, you may see the interactions between unknown beasts and fishes or observe wondrous plants. Or maybe you'll find something of your own at all.

There is no right interpretation here, all these are just keys that allow you to begin to perceive what is behind this painting. All the images are in our minds, and the meaning is transcendental ._.

BONES, 2022

In fact I really don’t know what is that

I finished paintings with a similar feeling, but this one is overflowing with an incredible ability to be capable, which is inherent in any person

Eve’s garden, 2022

How to understand that

Everything is coming to an end?

Let it be, 2022

Guess who

It ain’t much, but it’s honest work

WORLDWIRE, 2021

I guess I’m BACK

AAA?, 2019/2021

Started in 2019, finished only today

Sometimes completion of an art has more to do with acceptance it being completed🤔

I can already see four different essences here
