“I think that in the history of painting, Impressionists have reached the highest expression in the art.They work with the color and texture of the paint and graphics. They have something to learn. It is the Impressionists that started to focus on working with color. Paint, using a subtle color relationships.Very much I love to write different states of nature, especially morning and evening. They are the most saturated color.It seems to me that you can write on the nature all around. Beautiful places around us always.” ~ Daniil Volkov
