The traditions of the Moscow realistic school of painting are strong in the artist's work. The master of lyrical landscape soulfully paints corners of native nature, architectural monuments of Moscow and the Moscow region. Pearl-blue, lilac-pink, silver-gray tones of the palette evoke vivid impressions. The texture of the canvas's picturesque surface is pasty and at the same time airy.
