Autobiographical notes

Basically I work in a tree. I'm trying to combine in a single volume and therefore the color of the crash. A simple stories try to convey their understanding of the depth and diversity of life. I believe that art should be only positive and light emotions of the viewer what to do as powers and abilities. Based on Russian folk art (peasant), as well as the creativity of other peoples of the world: North and Latin America, Africa, etc.. Most love to see Russian icons and Russian wooden church sculpture.
