Far from obedience and beyond the border of absolutism of ideas, there are plains to rediscover your feline free will.
Acrylic on Belgian linen 100×120 cm “Uncle Sasha’s Fishing Spot” 2021
I started this painting in 2019 and finished it only in 2021. Sometimes inspiration comes in waves. You live inside a painting for months, then suddenly you cannot touch the canvas anymore, and only years later you understand how it truly should look. In large countries there is so much nature, so many lakes, rivers, forests, and hidden places far away from big cities. Most people live in megacities, while villages and forest areas stay almost empty. Because of this, local people often begin to feel that a certain lake or fishing spot is “theirs.” Not because they legally own it, but because it is part of their life. They rest there, fish there, sometimes even sell fish from there, build small gazebos, improve the area, bring things there, because it is allowed and because this is simply how people live with nature. And usually they happily share these places with strangers who arrive with kindness and respect. This place was called “Uncle Sasha’s Fishing Spot.” We arrived there by boat because reaching it by car was almost impossible unless you knew hidden forest roads that do not even exist on Google Maps. After some time the owner of the place appeared and politely tried to send us away, but kindness and smiles did their work. By the end we separated almost like friends, and Uncle Sasha told us, “Come visit us again.” Sometimes there is no need to argue that “everything belongs to everyone.” If a local person says it is their place, let it be so. You can simply respect that feeling, make friends, and then the place becomes yours too for a little while.

So so grateful for my patrons' support, especially in times like these. As an independent artist in a developing country, it truly means everything—you’re all helping me put food on the table and keep a roof over my head. 🫶
Under the Arches: We always had a cat when I was growing up; when I was 13 we got a white kitten called Suzy who was completely mad and loved to play with me! She brought us great joy, animating the garden with her antics. Original available https://t.co/YXtocoZawG
The White Hart, a rare white red deer stag, steeped in myth and mystery. In Arthurian legend, it symbolised the endless spiritual quest — something just out of reach, always calling you forward. But here’s a question… has anyone ever actually seen a real one in the wild? Acrylic painting with collage🦌✨ https://t.co/n6NgLn1fzl
