Statement:
I like wandering on the streets, looking at trees, houses, doors, gates, stones and everything else you can see there. Even though only trees are considered to be alive, everything there has some kind of strange life. They cannot talk with sounds, but they have their language: language of forms and colors. People in my paintings are part of the landscape, they look motionless, but they are alive, waiting for their moment, like everything else around them.

Bio
I was born in St.Petersburg, Russia. I enjoyed looking at paintings since I remember myself, was visiting Hermitage, Russian Museum and all other places where I could see something painted in St. Petersburg. During my teenage years I photographed everything that I could, and printed photographs in the makeshift darkroom in the bathroom. I immigrated to Israel in 1979, and was astonished by the strong colors and blinding light of the sun. I could not afford a camera and making photographs the same way I was doing in Russia, but the urge to put everything what I saw on paper was irresistible. I started drawing, thanks to the fact that pencils and papers were cheap enough in Israel. I started taking drawing and painting courses, trying to paint whenever I could. I moved to New York in 1989, where I studied painting in Arts Students League. My first group show was in 1993; my first solo show was in 1996. At the present time I live in New York City.
