Russian Artist Paints Monsters

Soviet atmosphere is almost gone in big Russian cities, but when you go a little away and further you will find it. And it inspires me much to paint post apocalyptic scenes. Rusty bus stops, abandoned industrial buildings, broken machines - I love stuff like that, I try to see the story that stands behind it, like in a movie when the picture changes and shows you the past.

I’ve come to painting of scary creatures to accelerate my imagination for 100%. It is fun to see something mystical or strange in ordinary objects and surroundings, it keeps me curios and creative just like a kid. It really makes me happy, I often laugh when I’m drawing another monster. I guess my imaginary creatures are my army against reality, they protect me like music and books do.
