My passion for ships and boats has been with me throughout my life. That is why, having an academic art education, as a marine artist, I prefer marine themes in my work. My artistic creativity is a picturesque story about unique ships, vessels, boats that are in the service of man. The portfolio includes several picturesque series, canvases of different genre and thematic focus: romantic seascape, industrial landscape, historical reconstruction in thematic series: STEEL GIANTS, MUSEUM SHIPS, FISHING BOATS, LIGHTHOUSES, OCEAN LINERS & FINE ART...
For me, ships and boat are living beings, each with its own character. They say that there is a lot of steel and masculine energy in my marine series. So it's true! Dynamic design, contours of hulls, majestic superstructures of tankers, cruisers, steamships, sailboats, fishing boats - everything has aesthetically finished forms that have always inspired marine artists!
My marine painting is a tribute to sailors, ships, engineers, volunteers, and everyone who served and continues to serve in the navy.
