Christmas Eve Is Here At Last 
Part 3 - Christmas Dance 

  


One of the main inspirations for creating my painting "Christmas Eve Is Here At Last", was the enchanting tale of E.T.A. Hoffmann The Nutcracker, a wonderful story so adored by many, dearly reminding us all of childhood and dreams.

During the creation of the painting, I was happily revisited by the most vivid childhood recollections, settled in my memory from long ago; they carried me away to the past full of wonderful adventures. 

The happy faces of children depicted in my painting and their energy told through the dynamic drawing and unity of colors, are part of my imagined fairy tale world of an artist, reminiscent of the delightful time of childhood.

Saint John The Baptist Icon Saint John The Baptist is a traditional icon of the ancient Russian style of icon painting depicting the figure of Saint John centrally positioned and in full length, surrounded by...

The Spirit Of The Christmas Holiday Season

The Splendid Christmas Tree In The Fine Art Studio For the past three days the wonderful “cold winter” California rain has been pouring outside the window, blessing us all with such a rare sight in this spectacular corner of the globe.
