Paintings -
Lelechenko
Nadya.
Each master has his
own material, which
he feels in the
best way.
And if some artists
consider a pastel
impractical I see
in using
of it a lot of
advantages that
give an opportunity
to transfer
movement of
soul.
We're glad to
present you the
artworks of Yana
Antonova.
Strength of her
idividuality in
painting style is
being revealed in
combination of
realistic elements
of an image with
figurative and
symbolyc conception
of painting and
delicate feeling of
pictorial and
plastic
expressiveness.
Ukrainian art
gallery glad to
present you the new
oil paintings of
Alex
Litvinov.
Nowadays abstract
representation of
thoughts is in
fashion; essential
principles of
classic painting
have passed to the
background. We are
convinced that this
situation is
inadmissible.
Litvinov basically
paints on biblical,
mythical and
historical themes.
