Italy

A series of paintings and graphic works dedicated to Italy. Bright, colorful sketches of Italy and the life of Italians are made in oil on wood and canvas. A separate section of the series is an album of monochrome watercolors about Rome.

The ringing midday heat was torn by the rhythms of the Mediterranean by the percussion of a shuffling broom. First, a quiet solo, then to the accompaniment of fallen leaves. She was cleaning a quiet street, hidden from the heat, and in a moment she met with a bouquet of forget-me-nots.
How did the flowers on the cold stone step refuse? Who were they waiting for or who weren't they waiting for?
Was it a young man who did not dare to approach the girl, or an arrogant girl who left the bouquet and the young man?

.... This riddle did not have time to become a herbarium.
Grandfather listened patiently to the approaching rustle of leaves, green skirt and the scent of his favorite forget-me-nots, which he had collected for the one who shared his gray hair equally.
