By the Fireplace


SOLD

This creamer was made in India, and has some scratches on it. I found it interesting, especially in the company of a garlick.

Eggplants


SOLD

We went to the Buford Highway Farmers Market in Atlanta (Doraville) yesterday. All those unbelieveble vegetables and fruit from different places of the world...very inspiring for me... so I painted these perfectly shaped white and purple eggplants.

Fruit and Jam

This can of blackcurrant jam is a present of the friend of mine. I believe she bought it in one of the Asian markets which had a Russian section. And now I'm thinking - where have I been? - not painting all these beautiful berries such as blackcurrant, redcurrant, goosberries, etc.? When I'm back in Russia, I won't hesitate - There are a lot of  berry bushes in my garden there.

My friend came over to my place to paint together today. She is a beginning painter and needed my advice. I enjoyed such collaborations.

Paris in Early Spring

SOLD
I'm continuing with the series of cityscapes. In this painting I tried to convey the evening atmosphere in the old European city, with its street lights and shop windows, using as light colors as I could.
