Original artwork description:

ARTWORK CONCEPT:
Images of passing childhood, an immense starry sky, a child's face dissolving into the mystery of being. Ancient huge dinosaurs that fit in the hand. Shadows of thoughts, imagination and dreams are combined into a picture of the world. Pictures of childhood..


TECHNIQUE:
The artwork is done in the author's mixed media on paper. I used several different materials and looked for the perfect combination as I worked on the painting. The graphic work is made with ink, alcohol, pen, tempera, charcoal. My technique is a kind of creative, emotional experiment on paper which allows me the maximum of freedom and flexibility.

AUTHORS CONCEPT:
All my artworks are based on real events and deeply personal experiences, which I express through metaphorical appeals, surrealistic forms and variety of signs. All buildings, objects, people at pictures are real and based on my memories, photos and real life models.
