Biography and information

Born and lived in Slavyansk in the Kuban, worked as an engineer. Having retired, he tried himself in painting, although he had never painted before. I switched from copying reproductions to landscapes from nature, and then to paintings painted according to the idea, like the Russian Winter exhibited here.
