A selection of #artworks by #Russian Artist #Alexandar Averin.
Alexander Averin was born in 1952 in Noginsk, near Moscow, he learned his technique from the painter #Dmitri Yorontnov at the #School of Fine Arts #"Souvenir de I'An 1905" in Moscow. He is a member of #the Moscow Painters Association, with whom he has exhibited on many occasions. For many years he specialized in #portraits. His style is purely #realistic, with a strong influence of the late #19th Century Russian painters, usually depicting domestic scenes in a soft twilight. His #realistic painting is typical for the ones of the end of the 19th Century. Like #Pavel Fedotov, #Averin's favourite painter, he works outside in the air, using surroundings to inspire the brush and compliment the work.

The main theme of Alexander Averin’s painting are #genre scenes with charming Russian young ladies against blossoming meadows and gardens, shady river coasts, and sea landscapes. Plot of the paintings is filled with sincere warmth and cordial feelings towards# children.

We can feel cool breath of Baltic sea, transparency of air and careless mood of children playing at coast on the paintings of the artist. We admire tame meadow colors on the bank of unknown lake and undercover places in the shadow of coastal trees. Portraits of ladies in air dresses and figures of suntanned boys underline beauty of the surrounding nature, whether it is seacoast or small rivers, or a blossoming meadow.

We can tell that "... A masterful combination of a portrait and a landscape in style "impression" is distinguishing feature of talent of the artist Alexander Averin".
