The Farewell to Autumn

Igor Denisov, Russia

As a painter I am mostly interested in learning and depicting such objects as human body, the folds of cloth, and the complex and varied structures of leaves, flowers, branches, stones, and grass. I create pictures of various genres and vary the execution method and the manner of painting in dependence of the subject matter and the emotional content. Sometimes I am fascinated by nature and eager to grasp the beauty of an object, an outdoor scene, or a personality. Sometimes I am inspired by the opportunity to try new painting tricks and introduce the new vision of a thing by placing it into an unusual context. Sometimes I am to embody an idea, a sudden image born in my mind. Sometimes I want to tell stories and sometimes - to make riddles. Sometimes my purpose is to play with concepts and to shift the paradigms. And sometimes I want that all together!
