Description | |
What cant a man exist in this world without? Some people will answer without love. The others will say without faith and hope. The third will mention water, food, warmth. It will also be true. And only few people will say without air. And in this exact answer there will be honesty in the face of reality.
But what cant a talented artist exist in this world without? Im afraid of being romantic but the example of Igor Mashkov convinces us that we cant live without painting. Painting for him is the same air without which his life is impossible. Of course, like for each man, love, friendship and contemporaries recognition are important for him. Like all of us the artist enjoys the fragrance of fresh bread and emotionally feels the coolness and bracing strength of pure water sip. However for a young artist the flexible elasticity of the brush, the sparkling of the squeezed colours of the palette and the attractive whiteness of the canvas waiting for the first dabs are the sense and purpose of life. Because with the help of colour and brush he can tell the world about love, friendship, hope, of the beauty of the light shades that are thrown by high clouds on the fields full of spikes. Mashkovs art engrosses not with dramatic fullness of the story but with a more mysterious quality an ability to convince the spectator, enhrall him by the reality created on the canvas.

Same Style Realism |
 |
A style of painting which depicts subject matter (form, color, space) as it appears in actuality or ordinary visual experience without distortion or stylization. In a general sense, refers to objective representation. More specifically, a nineteenth century movement, especially in France, that rejected idealized academic styles in favor of everyday subjects. Daumier, Millet, and Courbet were realists. |
