Andrey Aranyshev, 1956 | Abstract painter

A painter who is a philosopher costs dear, but it is double as costly if he is a truly master of art. Andrey Aranyshev / Андрей Аранышев carries rare conviction in combining the methods of creating conditional decorativeness, colour surface and figuraly-spatial reality.

His objects are bright and delicate; his images are not flesh but emotion. However the artist doesn't create antropomorphous phantoms.

His actual "characters" are energy of light, colour, an exquisite line and harmony of composition.
