Was a relatively late child in the family. Although the idea about my probable coming to the world had been in the air for more that 10 years. Within the period of my parents' thoughts I had enough time for my ripening. Therefore I was born with the body of baby and with the soul of adolescent. And since the soul turned to be "non-humpbacked", as it was approved by witnesses, I'm sure that on the whatnot near my parent's bed among little elephants and porcelain deers there was however a tiny Apollo's statuette.
As it was found out later besides my genetic heritage from Johannes Memling according to the agnation, the third important factor of my artistic forming was appearance of two beautiful ladies at the beginning of my life way, The first one was my drawing master and the second one was a paint shop's teacher, which I regarded as a Mirey Maties with a paint brush. I wanted to attract their attention by my careful painting. And I managed to do that. They were my stimulus and award.
In the kindergarten I dreamed to be a professor, at the school - a traveler, but I'd never dreamed to become a painter. Now I understand why.
I was already a painter and I realized that fact on lectures on soil science and philosophy having heartily trainings in drawing within 5 years.
When I received my diploma of geography-theater I recalled Enger and understood that my art education will come to the end only by my mummy's death. After a short intermediate stage of being a geography-teacher in high-school's classes and drawing-teacher in the elementary school, I moved to serve Melpomene. I'd been serving her by belief and truth, and sometimes by hope and love for 12 years playing a role of a theatre dauber.
At the beginning of this century the work over wall-painting in the little church in Las-Palmas helped me to make a decision to finish the theatre career and to concentrate upon painting, and aquarelle of course.
