I live and work in Moscow. The main direction of my work is abstract expressionism in painting, graphics and digital media. I create artworks for living and common interiors, collaborate with interior designers, architects and collectors.

I've been in art all my life. I usually see the images inside my mind and try to paint or draw them. Besides, I like to make interiors better with my artworks. I am passionate about abstract art most of all. It gives me a reason to think about color force and new forms.
