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...

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 ARKADIY PLASTOV.

Artist Arkadiy Plastov (1893-1972). It coudn't be mistake if to call him "one of the best"Russian painters time of USSR.
Even it's possible to tell "he- best". But why? Time of second half of 20th century was full of great tallented masters of art.
So from what especial premises it was formed phenomen of Plastov?
If to read his biography, so we see that he was born in family of country icon-painter and peasants. He got icon-painting and religious education. This factors plus his kind soul done eternal influience on all his future life and art.
What intresting, that long time of his life he worked as general director of collective farm (kolhoz). And he lucky combine hese two professions given to him from his childhood. Profession of director gave to him possibility to get buisness connections and to get respectable status. But he never find this. Becourse he live of art, of love to people and to nature. He knew andived of philosophy of eternity. Very natural and  simple style of living. So he felt voice of eternity, and he UNDERSTOOD and KNEW HIS SOUL. And Plastov combined it with his great art masterpiece. This things gave large spiritual power to his art.
Unaccountable power. We can see very usual and so simple piece of peasant life, we can  see great skill. But we can only feel and contemplate something outstanding...
Yes, Arkadiy Plastov was Academic of Fine Art Academy, very respectable and wellknown person, his artworks everytime took plase in general state museums. He used these gifts of doom, but he never was slave of this gifts. He feel himsel as Person and Artist He loved life and people- thats what we really can see in his Art.
