oil on canvas

70x60 cm

2023

A depiction of a ship with abstract lines and vibrant colors against a bluish background. The mix of geometric shapes and dynamic brush strokes creates a sense of movement and complexity.
I painted an oil painting on canvas in the expressionist style, which depicts the stem of the famous sailing ship Amerigo Vespucci. The explosive manner of execution emphasizes the uniqueness of sailing ships and their ability to sail across oceans. It's not just a canvas; it is a testament to the enduring appeal of sailing ships and their limitless ability to capture the hearts and imaginations of all who encounter them. Let it find its place in your world and fill it with the beauty and freedom of the open sea.
The Amerigo Vespucci is a tall ship of the Italian Navy (Marina Military) named after the explorer Amerigo Vespucci. Its home port is La Spezia, Italy, and it is in use as a school ship.
In 1925, the Regia Marina ordered two school ships to a design by General Lieutenant Francesco Rotundi of the Italian Navy Engineering Corps, inspired by the style of large late 18th century 74-cannon ships of the line. Amerigo Vespucci was the second ship built in 1930, built in 1930 at the (formerly Royal) Naval Shipyard of Castellammare di Stabia (Naples). She was launched on 22 February 1931,[2] and put into service in July of that year.
While sailing the Mediterranean Sea in 1962, the American aircraft carrier USS Independence flashed the Amerigo Vespucci with the light signal asking: "Who are you?" The full-rigged ship answered: "Training ship Amerigo Vespucci, Italian Navy." The Independence replied: "You are the most beautiful ship in the world."

oil on canvas 60x90 cm 2023 Vividly colored ships are docked at a bustling port, with their masts and rigging creating intricate patterns against a bright blue sky. The reflections of the vessels dance across the shimmering water, enhancing the dynamic feel. Among the large number of archival photos from different times, I was attracted by one, where a huge ship and a tugboat are so touchingly depicted - a small helper of a large port. Subsequently, I found, by the characteristic outlines of the hull, that the ship is a cargo ship CITY OF SWANSEA - one of five owned by Ellerman Lines and a tugboat - a bright representative of the Liverpool Fighting Cock docks of Liverpool Screw Towing. Unfortunately, the name of the author of the photograph from the D.B. Hillman Collection is not known. Today, rethinking the past, I have breathed new life into a story that was so touchingly recorded and preserved by posterity as the maritime heritage of Great Britain.

oil on canvas 80x100 cm 2025 The morning fog hides the full profile of the old city. But, as time goes by, the outlines of the majestic residents of the harbor gradually appear - the ships at the quay wall. While IMAGINATION works. The port lives on schedule - ships come and go, the old hulls of which have long dreamed of a dock, tugboats seethe, their whistles and sirens tear apart the pre-dawn darkness, as if helping the sun to break through the harbor haze and bring clarity to the magical place with a thousand reflections in the water mirror of the venerable harbor.

oil on canvas 25x30 cm 2020 Vivid colors and bold brushstrokes bring to life a mountainous landscape under a dynamic sky. The foreground is composed of rolling hills that lead the eye towards the towering peaks. Denia (Spain) in all its infinite attraction. A city of medieval character.  Small and narrow streets are replaced by broad alleys leading to the port, to the sea. Unique relief with the «guarding» city mountain Montgo - natural park. The rays of the sun, like the master of the mint, show the edges of buildings and old cathedrals, and sunlit ships and boats in the harbour blinded their white sides.

oil on canvas 60x90 cm 2023 A large ship is docked at a harbor, with vibrant, abstract brushstrokes creating a dynamic depiction of the scene. The sky is clear and blue, complementing the bustling yet serene atmosphere of the port. I think that fate and unpredictability are synonymous words. Fate can be changeable not only in relation to people, but also to ships. From the archival photos that have recently become my companions, I highlighted the dim and image of a passenger steamer on the pier of blinding whiteness. The pronounced cheekbones of the stem undoubtedly attributed the vessel to the German traditions in the architecture of ships of the early last century. I expanded my search and found wonderful photos telling about the happy fate of the ship. MS MILWAUKEE is a German diesel passenger ship built by Blohm & Voss and launched in February 1929 for the Hamburg-America line. She was used on transatlantic routes from Hamburg to New York and cruised to the Canary Islands, Madeira and Spain on the same route. Not only was the ship with stunning lines and characteristics happy, but also thousands of passengers, whose happy faces were preserved in photographs of archives and private collections. But! Only until 1939! Afterwards there was a war!.. During World War II, the ship was used as a Kriegsmarine barracks ship. In 1945 the ship was handed over to the British government under the new name Empire Waveney and was used to transport troops. On 1 March 1946 she was badly damaged in a fire at Liverpool Dock. It was scrapped in Scotland in 1947. This was the journey of the ship, and now about its fate, which, as it turned out, is closely intertwined with the American city of Milwaukee, Wisconsin, after which in 1929 the cruise line Hamburg America decided to christen its newest liner MS Milwaukee. The company brought the Milwaukee city flag to Germany for its launching ceremony. Just as now, the war destroyed ties between multiple countries and their peoples, determining the future of humanity and the ship.

oil on canvas 60x60 cm 2021 Vibrant orange blooms are the centerpiece of a dynamic composition, surrounded by softer white and blue flowers amidst a backdrop of bold, abstract strokes. The image conveys energy through its heavy impasto technique, suggesting movement and texture, while the use of contrasting colors adds to its visual impact. The still life is made with a palette knife, based on planes that resemble kaleidoscope crystals - hence the name KALEIDOSCOPE OF FLOWERING. The geometric cobweb, in general, is read by a single composition of the bouquet, which combines bright and active colors of wild flowers.
