ARTIST ANDREY LYSSENKO. DEMO. BOUQUET OF TULIPS.

This is demonstration of how i worked on painting "Bouquet of tulips". Everytime its difficult to me to stop painting and to do photo of moment. I never use especial "steps". So way of development of each new work is distinguishing and personal. 

 

Step-1. Scetch, layout of main elements of artwork

                                                                                                                                                           Step-2. Loading colors and shades.

    

                                                                                                                                                                       Step-3. Elaboration of  development of drawing, colors, shades.

Step-4. Finalized Study. "Boquet of tulips". 40/30 cm. (16/12 inches). Oil/canvas. 2011.

SUMMER REST. CONCEPTION OF ARTIST.

And what? Best cherries-cherries from neighbour garden... In my position maybe possible to tell this. Why? Becourse now i am sitting and looking at the window... And what i can see? Again and again snow snow snow. And frost. Even i haven't desire to go to walk in night winter forest!... Maybe somebody from southern countries have this dreams, but not me- 4,5 months of winter weather- its rather good execution!!!

I wanna get another way.... In my mind i draw pictures of hot, south, sea, yes, what rest without sea... paintfull landscapes... polite people who never come to me to interfere with my painting landscapes, or who ask 

stupid and senseless reqest as "be so kind to draw my portrait, i'll mail it to my mama"....

In my real reality i have oficial invitations to plen-air actions, but i want to hide it in deep of "writer's table", this plen-airs are not bad deal, never no. But it has only shade of rest. Plen-air, mostly plen-air with auction and final show- it's everytime- responsibility... means stress. Artist everytime have his professional ambition. If artist is "low or middle class", he want to prove his worth to around standing people, if artist is ARTIST- he everytime want to prove his own worth to himself. What proposition does bigger stress- difficult to tell. Mostly if young and honored artists find theirselfes in one group- so here we can look for eternal problems of  "parents nd children"... Do i need this? Or i want that? No no no...

I can't think my rest without painting. personal plen air is the best rest. But this must be very free style of  painting with no  program, with no commitment and tasks... Yes, what good, to stay in suny land, swimming in sea...to use fresh sea fish, fruits... to live in comfortable apartaments with balcony... and to paint, paint, paint...

Paint for enjoy, Paint for relax, Paint for future, Paint for memory of people who invited and took care of you... Life of the soul...

Jean-Baptiste-Camille Corot.  "Landscape with the windy weather." 1875.

"I never hurry to go to details. I was primarily interested in the mass and nature paintings. When it is already established, I begin to look for the subtleties of form and color. I kept working on it, without being distracted by nothing and not adhering to the system ..".

TO BE AN ARTIST...

Who exactly do you want to be in art? How exactly do you want to be in art? How do you want to stay in art? These questions help to discard all unnecessary fashion trends and to seek to own, personal purpose...

GREAT ARTIST ANDREY RYABUSHKIN (1861-1904)

Ryabushkin... Very... very Russian artist. He felt life of Russia and people very sensitively. I can't tell better and realy- he loved his Motherland. Maybe it's heard rather loudly, but it's better word here. Unlike artists, named "Peredvizhniks", Ryabushkin painted life of Russia in light and bright colors, he showed light sides of life. Of usual life of different kinds of people. As person he was very quiet and modest man. Ryabushkin loved painting, but not honor and PR.

Maybe because of it he is great and famous, but not wellknown. His artworks available in general museums of Russia as Moscow Tretyakov Gallery  and Russian Museum of St. Petersburg.

Intresting feature of his life: When he graduated from Moscow Academy of Fine Arts with exelent mark, he was awarded a journey to Europe. But Ryabushkin  refused to go. He preferred to travel the ancient  towns of Russia.  These little, quite  and unknown towns, shapes of them lived in Ryabushkin Arts. It was his real mission.

TEACHER OF REALISM ART- PAVEL CHISTYAKOV (1832-1919)

 Chistyakov- Academic of Fine Arts. Teacher of Realism Painting. His pupils were such famous artists as Repin, Serov, Surikov, Vrubel  and more other...

"Fine, but offline"- often told Chistyakov about "realistic to death" art.
"Real, right art isn't deathly copy of nature. Art is product of soul, man's spirit.
Art is those sides of human soul what rise him up under all things of world.
Art must show best inner features of human and of space."

He liked hard critic of "empty-paintings". He constantly reminded that painting isn't "estetic joke".
Painting wants for committed and for everytime work.
