I've been drawing all my life, I don't remember when I started, my parents told me. Since 2002, I decided to take it seriously. I studied as a programmer, but then I realized that this is not mine. In every environment, there are its templates, and in my environment, it was considered something silly to draw. After all, I studied at an ordinary school in Bataysk, not in Italy or France. I entered the Grekov School, then the institute for graphic arts, but I still haven't finished it because it's hard to attend. Now I have an adult life, I need to think about how to earn money. Often, a person creates something romantic in creativity, but in life, they just get married. He himself is detached from life, lives in his fairy tales. I prefer the image of an artist who is like a magazine or book: he helps people better understand life, but for this, he himself must understand it. And learning to make a living is a much bigger institute than studying at an institute.

The leap in my creativity occurred at the moment when I realized that my perception of preference is based on kinesthesia (body sensations, movement, weight), and only then on visual perception. In psychology, such people are called kinesthetic. Hence I came up with a name for my style: kinesthetic realism. My line as if envelops the object of observation, touches its very flesh, sharpened in the plane of paper and canvas, it seems to strive to comprehend the complex forms and phenomena that are beyond its boundaries. The intuitive method allows you to feel, "hear" the impulse of a completed, holistic image, which remains only to reveal, "release" into our world.
