Ships of Fools
"Ships of Fools"
graphite pencil on paper, 18”X27”
Sea tornado or tornadic waterspout depicts apocalypse, end of the world. Everything is whirling around the deadly vortex. This vortex sucks in everything around and there is no escape from its pulling force. Everything is mercilessly tugged into a water funnel, into abyss, into oblivion.

Creation of the World
Original artwork created with graphite/coloured pencil on paper, H13” x W20”
Belong to North Suite series.
We live in myths. Our peace of mind demands that all the facts and elements of the "real world" (as we call it) be somehow explained. We build myths, myths in which everything that surrounds us has its place and meaning. The myths of the northern peoples are not fairy tales, they are their reality in its most understandable and meaningful form. The northerners, surviving in the extreme conditions of the "edge of the world", have formed a culture (and culture is actually a sum of myths) so perfect and picturesque, and in some respects so different from the European (Western) tradition, that it deeply fascinates and inspires me as an artist.

Opera “Carousel”
Opera "Carousel" pen/ink drawing, 18”X26”.
"Seldom Bucket had always enjoyed opera. He didn’t understand it and never had, but he didn’t understand the ocean either and he enjoyed that, too".
Maskerade" Terry Prattchett ...
I love Opera. I love this genre, combining almost every other of fine arts. This compound is not just a mathematical sum of it's components - music, drama, visual art, dance... Their symbiosis gives birth to something absolutely different, to the visual feast. This artwork belongs to my Carousel series.

"Alice was beginning to get very tired of sitting by her sister on the bank, and of having nothing to do: once or twice she had peeped into the book her sister was reading, but it had no pictures or conversations in it, `and what is the use of a book,' thought Alice `without pictures or conversation?'
Lewis Carroll
