“I have been to Kazakhstan many times. With my friends Ralph Pfeffer and Oleg Belyalov, we traveled tens of thousands of kilometers through this amazing, stunningly beautiful country. As a memory of our travels, I have many field watercolors and sketches drawn right there – in the steppes , deserts and mountains, on the banks of rivers and lakes. Even after many years in Moscow, looking at field drawings from nature, I return to those places, feel and see what I saw then. And I paint large easel works”
