Its already written in my profile that i am an artist. Yes, but a copy artist. You get, right?? I mean i can copy a certain picture/art. Though i can make it look the same, i add my own touches to it. Lately, i have been dying to copy few works done by Leonid Afremov, a Belarusian painter. These pictures posted above are his work. Isn't he great ?? I am just at awe ! I have been following his work for a long time now and even did a copy of a few. My specialty as an artist would be- oils. I love oils, but i love to sketch too. Thats what i did while copying Afremov's work. I did a sketching of his Paintings. Here have a look.
How did you like it? Its not that great. And yes, i have put some effects. Otherwise i have done them in plain pencil. But i think when you sharpen the images, the pencil work comes out more effectively. Okay so, that was Afremov for you today. I shall come back again with another painter's copied work. God ! i feel so much like a thief !!! But you have to agree with me that his work is worth copying! So much technique and dedication.
Oh FYI, Afremov has a Facebook page and he has a group for painters in general. In the latter, any painter can showcase his works from anywhere around the globe and collectors can come and buy paintings from here. Trust me, if you have an eye for this, go and have a look.
Here its is Leonid Afremov Group for Artist and Collectors .
Another FYI- Afremov doesn't paint with a brush ! He paints with a Pallete-knife. Very difficult, but he is the master at it! His strokes are so easy yet so difficult. In short, he is awesome.
:) Now i am inspired again. Lookout for new painters. And tell me about it too. There is so much peace in art.
