And another artist that I really liked, Andrey Selenin @andreyselenin . I have a biased attitude towards oil - everywhere I see the predecessors (great artists of the 16th and 20th centuries). Well, there is very little in the oil of something new and original, especially technically. And then I really liked it!

Second artist Oleg Timoshin @olegtimoshin_art . I knew him, but I am not a fan of his delicately glamorous landscapes and flowers. But one work interested me technically (it’s just in a carousel with fragments). From the graphite image on the canvas, the sunflowers are moving to a textured plastic mass and watercolor on top of it. There was a lot of plastic in the works at the fair, but somehow it is alien to me.

The other day I visited the Poneaili exhibition fair @ ponaehali.spb and I want to share my impressions with you. The event is quite extensive, well organized and quite crowded despite the fact that it is far from the city center (Shushary). A lot of artists, jewelers, collectors, a little antiques (I didn’t expect antiques to be seen there at all) and even a living fox on a leash (someone’s pet).

On the air of Yulia Barminova as part of the @watercolor_battle marathon #watercolor_battle_1 #royaltalenseu #royaltalens_europe
I promised myself not to get involved in marathons. Not to me now! But looking at how Julia quickly and easily wrote this sketch, I could not resist and, on the timer, also blasted this one hour. I immediately wanted to return to the sea and the storms ... Well, it’s this repair!

Thank you for your attention, interest and time.

How have I changed from life in St. Petersburg? Cardinally! It is rather not life, but a sluggish lethargic dream. I began to drink 2 cups of coffee in the morning instead of one, wash my face with ice water, wake up strictly according to the alarm clock with a big creak. If you don’t wake me, it seems to me that I won’t wake up at all. And so on. People!!! How do you manage to work here and generally move ???

At the exhibition @iws_sare_gallery_moscow_ next to his work. Everyone writes rave reviews, and I, as usual, with my skeptical look. Everything would be great, if not for one big BUT - signatures for the work. They just killed me! What was the point of writing: technology, size and country ???

A quick study for the competition ... No, it doesn’t sound good 😂 Trying to write a work for the competition on the last day of the term. Stupid habit of doing everything at the last moment! Even flew into Sapsan today in 5 minutes. before the departure of the train. Here is the corresponding result. You need to prepare for such events, Natasha, in advance and seriously! And not like a train - at the last moment!

Thank you for your attention, interest and time.

My work at the workshop of Anna Chepurnoy-Oleynik.
Last Sunday I attended my first master class - Anna's master class @ chepurnaiaoleinik. Usually I don’t go to master classes, but then all the stars coincided - I ended up in St. Petersburg on time. It was very interesting. The progress of the work, the sequence and even the movements of the brush - everything is completely different ... Until now, everything inside me is squeezing into a lump when I remember how Anna “stroked against the wool” on the surface of rough paper my favorite core brush!

According to a master class by Sergei Kurbatov. 28x38
Noisy options for this work on Instagram and good! But I just woke up and remembered about her.
More than a week, WEEKS !!! I wrote a copy of my still life for the exhibition iws_sare_gallery_moscow in February. The original was written in 3 days ... Damn, this turned out to be much more difficult with watercolor than with oil! And the monitor is in trouble. After my slightly settled relations with Sanders, I took arsh - for reliability and ... Arsh does not consume color at all! It turned out, probably, my brightest “tear out my eyes” work.

Oh !!! Here she was able to overcome the cotton baohong !!!
Moving to Moscow. Gatherings, vanity, bags with things - once I really liked it ... The so-called "Suitcase mood". Now, with horror and panic, I count the days before departure. Either too much now has to collect junk (husband, children, cat), or I wound up at the end. And in principle, it’s not bad sometimes to shake oneself and change the shell, but only without these endless tedious gatherings!
