Member of the Moscow regional public Organization "Union of Artists".A member of the ROO TS of "Eurasian Union Art»Participant and laureate of international exhibitions and competitions. The main direction of creativity is symbolism, the direction is intellectual painting. My paintings are about the spirituality of modern man, about the meaning of life, the philosophy of life, about the reinterpretation of our being.I was born in Magadan (Russia) in 1965, received a higher education (biochemist) in Dnepropetrovsk (Ukraine). Defended the degree of Candidate of Sciences. At the age of 40, a re-evaluation of the value in my life began, I began to draw (self-taught), because there was a need to express my feelings and thoughts. In the beginning it was fine art, but then as my personal spiritual growth and paintings became about the philosophy of life, about the spiritual life of modern man. I write in the style of symbolism.I work with oil, tempera, and watercolors. I try new techniques to better express my idea, from the techniques of old Italian masters to abstraction.Currently I teach painting to my students
