Colored pen painting Alexander Pavlovich and Platov in London Alexander Arkadievich Litvinov

In "Alexander Pavlovich and Platov in London," the canvas comes alive with the vibrant hues of colored pencils, capturing the essence of impressionism. The foreground of the painting showcases a bustling cityscape, its architectural marvels rising towards the sky. Buildings stand tall, each one a unique blend of colors and textures, reflecting the diversity and energy of London. Hovering above the city, a cluster of colorful balloons adorns the sky. Their buoyant presence adds a touch of whimsy to the scene, as if inviting the viewer to embark on an enchanting journey. Amidst the balloons, two figures find themselves perched on one of the aerial vessels, suspended in the air. Alexander Pavlovich and Platov, the two individuals on the balloon, sit side by side, their gazes focused intently on the city below. In their hands, they hold a long, cylindrical tube that serves as a telescope. With great curiosity and awe, they peer through the instrument, their eyes alive with wonder and contemplation. The artists' skilled use of colored pencils allows for a remarkable interplay of shades and tones. The cityscape exudes a lively spectrum of colors, from the warm oranges and yellows of the setting sun to the cool blues and greens that accentuate the city's vitality. The balloons, in contrast, appear vibrant and whimsical, painted in an array of playful shades, from vivid reds and purples to soft pinks and blues. The title of the painting, "Alexander Pavlovich and Platov in London," adds a historical context to the scene. It hints at the presence of two prominent figures from the past, possibly referencing a fictional meeting or a flight of imagination. This juxtaposition of historical figures within a contemporary cityscape underscores the timeless nature of exploration and the boundless possibilities of the human spirit. "Alexander Pavlovich and Platov in London" is a captivating work of art that invites viewers to embark on a journey of their own, combining the enchantment of hot air balloons, the allure of a bustling city, and the joy of discovery.

About the artists: Alexander Arkadievich Litvinov was born on May 18, 1967 in the city of Lubny. He graduated from the Lubensk secondary school № 1. One of his favorite lessons was drawing. I was even more attracted by studies at an art school, where boys and girls were introduced to high art thanks to the wise teachers Vasily Semenyuta, Anatoly Kharchuk, Nikolai Korablev, Tamara Moshnikoviy. Especially in his artistic development, Alexander owes to Vasily Ivanovich Semenyuta, his classical school of teaching, which he enriched in his time through his acquaintance with famous artists Alexei Asaulenko and Petr Likhin. And also an extremely important role in the passion for painting was played by the fact that Alexander's father, Arkady Petrovich Litvinov, was both a talented artist and an excellent teacher. He had 53 years of teaching experience - he taught drawing and drawing at the Lubensk school №8, many of his students connected their professions with artistic creativity. Alexander's elder brother, Oleg Arkadyevich Litvinov, a member of the National Union of Artists of Ukraine, now lives in Odessa, also chose the artistic path.

And after leaving school, Alexander served in the army, where his artistic talent came in handy - in Soviet times, visual agitation was highly valued. He served in Dnepropetrovsk, where two personal exhibitions of his paintings were organized. While still at school, Alexander began to design books, in particular, children's literature. He received his first creative fee in the tenth grade from the publishing house "Raduga" for the design of the book by Anatoly Rybakov "Krosh's Vacation". Later she studied at the Odessa Theater and Art School, specializing in "Decoration of puppet shows and artistic and props art."

Studying at the school and passion from childhood with historical and biblical literature greatly influenced the creative manner of the artist. He works in the style of the so-called figurative art, where the main thing is the image of the human body.
