Description from the author:
Man is used to considering himself the pinnacle of nature's creation, the most intelligent creature on this planet. But is our attitude to the one that gave birth to us so unambiguous - to nature?
And the "crown of nature" implies something ideal, perfect. Can a person become perfect outside of nature, following only progress?
WHAT GREAT MASTERS INFLUENCED MY CREATIVITY?
For a long time I have not painted landscapes and have already managed to forget how cool it is. Many people now do not like to decorate their interior with landscapes. Probably the Soviet era made itself felt. When in every house a reproduction of a famous painting hung on the wall without fail. These were the landscapes of Shishkin, Repin, Aivazovsky and many other great masters of that time.
Many people simply do not understand such pictures. Everything incomprehensible is fashionable now.
At one time, my work was also influenced by the work of the great artist Levitan.
I drew copies of his paintings and blissed out ... my favorite
painting "At the Pool" and "Quiet Abode".
How do you feel about landscapes?
