Andrey Smirnov "The shadow of a white rose" Automatic translate

“..And if only a shadow remained from the rose, you can imagine it better than it was… The shadow of the white Rose. Silver Age. Little Pierrot cries out of self-pity, and diamonds roll down his cheeks. To portray fragility when he himself turns into beads, and is ready to give everything in an instant of eternity. And here, with a wide brush, from bottom to top, brush the details with color and line more transparent and with diamond edges… And with horror I think how I ended up here when I was from there… "

He draws special inspiration from female nature, creating charming and mysterious female images, sometimes touchingly embarrassed, sometimes arrogantly narcissistic - they are always mysterious and captivating the viewer’s attention.
