From autobiography

I was born in 1960 in a small Russian town Kolomna, which is 80 miles from Moscow. Since 1966 I live in Ukraine, in Kirovograd. I finished school here and graduated from the University. While studying in the University I was fond of drawing espessially caricaturures. My works were published in the press. Afterwards I took up painting seriously and I'm happy about my choice. In 1982 I started the career of engineer at the machinery plant, but as time passed by I realised that painting is my inspiration and it is worth paying more time and that's my engineering career was over. I devoted myself to the painting.
