Original artwork description:

The main object of this project is a human face.
With a quote paraphrase of the famous Russian writer Chekhov, I observe the human face as a "mirror of his soul". How often do we see however somebody's true face? One mostly endeavours to keep his emotions private and shows rather a mask to the others. Yet sometimes the soul comes in sight for a short while and they can see then what is hidden behind the mask. In my paintings I tried to convey these fleeting moments.
Nevertheless the human face is for me not only the mirror, that allows me a glance behind the mask, but an instrument, which helps me to recall viewer's mind to the certain subjects.

Materials used:

Canvas, Oil
