Painting “Express from the steppe” (2015)
This is a plainair artwork, just like most of my works are.
The work was made at Lebediovka, an old sanatorium at the seaside of a Black sea.
The rays of a singular lantern tears out the trainlike line of wild bushes out from the darkness of steppe. The piece of nature is shown to a random spectator and goes back to primal darkness. The neighborhood of man and the nature in half wild places like old postsoviet sanatoriums impresses me much as an artist.
The work can be framed as one piece with a separation line between the parts or as two separate pieces but placed close to each other in the room
Usually I work on plain air to catch the impression directly, later finishing works at the studio. That maybe is a reason for choosing pastels as a medium, as it lets one work quickly and easy to carry it. Pastel also gives many possibilities to work with color. I use only colored paper to get the overall tone and the atmosphere. Also I work with tempera, I like this kind of a bit more decorative but still complicated surface of the image that it makes.
