Roman Bonchuk - an experienced artist (over 20 years), designer, restorer, art director. Was born on November 11, 1980 in the city of Ivano-Frankivsk, Ukraine. I work in the style of impressionism, realism, surrealism and abstractionism. I use a variety of materials: oil, acrylic, watercolor, ink, pastel, gouache, tempera, etc. I love experiments. I 'm inspiration scooping from books on history and philosophy. I'm interested in history, especially art. I seek inspiration wherever possible, especially in real everyday life. Any person, conversation or detail grabbed the attention can tell the plot of the future picture. I love to draw big pictures. Very big and gigantic. When I draw them, my hands are burning with fire. And I am delighted! I can find simple solutions for complex tasks. If you have big plans, I will be glad to participate in your project. Write to me.
