About Painting

The painting has undergone many changes over the centuries and the only obvious similarity is that all the paintings are covered on their surface with some kind of paint. But even that varies from season to season.
Painting describes and evokes every emotion that can be felt!

In the Renaissance period the real depiction of nature is the absolute beauty of painting. In the modern age
of avant-garde and the abstract, the lack of aesthetic coherence in painting creates confusion.

The painter with his style and mood unconsciously presents his personality through
his paintings.

The canvas depiction of the artist's soul and his technical skills create one masterpiece, which speaks to the senses of people and calms their souls.
