Recently I have seen paintings by Viktor Bychkov whose works were new to me. The artist works in various genres: portrait, still life, art landscape. I wanted to show you some of his still life and landscapes, that I liked more.
Viktor Bychkov was born in 1956 in town of Kovrov and was graduated from Saint Petersburg Art Academy in 1988.
He was a participant of many art exhibitions among them:
Joint art exhibition in Emeryville ,USA, California, 1992.
“EXPO-92”, Spain, 1992.
Exhibition of Russian Art Academy, St. Petersburg, Moscow, Kazan, Krasnoyarsk, Russia 1995.
Exhibition “Seven Artists”, Vladimir, Russia 1997.
Viktor Bychkov's works can be found in state museums of Russia, more of 50 art pieces are in private collections in a number of countries all over the world.
What is your opinion about such realistic art? Perhaps it reminds you somewhat a photo?
Or a photo can not replace realistic art?
Beautiful! I love it!
ReplyDeleteSo beautiful Nadezda, I really can´t choose the one I like best. May be the first one or the third or the landscape, they are all very pretty.
ReplyDeleteregards, Janneke
I love the first one best too, Janneke.
DeleteI really like the first two. They look so natural.
ReplyDeleteYes, they do, I agree Sue.
DeleteI like the first two the best! It reminds me of vases with flowers in my parents home. So a little nostalgic. Groetjes
ReplyDeleteI'm glad these chosen paintings reminded you the parents' home Hetty.
DeleteIt is similar to a photo but more ideal, I think. It's very pretty. I like the landscapes too.
ReplyDeleteThe landscapes are typical for Victor's place. Thank you Jenny!
DeleteIncredibly skillful works. It's as if the flowers were living. Thank you for showing me these pictures.
ReplyDeleteYou're welcome, Anne!
DeleteReally like his painting style, his use of light makes the painting so real and natural, the light reminds me of a summers day :) Thank You I will have look online for more of his work
ReplyDeleteI'm glad you liked Viktor's works, Nezumi.
DeleteThank you for introducing me to this artist. I really love his work!
ReplyDeleteYou're welcome Sarah!
DeleteThey are so lovely! Yes, very realistic, but still much warmer and more intimate than any photo can be.
ReplyDeleteI agree a photo fixes a fact and a painter expresses his feelings.
DeleteI like the fifth one, snowy landscape. It has like a fairy tale atmosphere:)Thank you for introducing the nice artist!
ReplyDeleteYou're right Keity, wintry landscape is illuminated by sun, nice.
DeleteThank you for the interesting post, Nadezda! I like these paintings because they are beautiful and they evoke feelings and memories and hopes. I think a good painting is better than most photos, but also, a good photo can express very many things.
ReplyDeleteA photo and a painting are two sides of art. They both reflect author's feelings.
DeleteDid he paint all those? Or did he just create the pieces and then took pictures? Whatever he did -- absolutely beautiful. I really like all the vase arrangements.
ReplyDeleteMichelle, he does paints all these paintings, they are oil on canvas. The vases are pretty, you're right.
DeleteA realistic painting always bares the mark of the artist who painted it. I don't think it is as mechanical as a photo. Thanks for introducing me to an artist whose work I was unfamiliar with.
ReplyDeleteYou're welcome Jennifer!
DeleteHello Nadezda!!!!
ReplyDeleteStunning images. I am happy that I met him.
Thank you very much, Nadezda.
Greetings.
Thank you too Lucja!
DeleteI like the daintiness of the lily-of-the-valley. Such finely painted flowers and stems. Also, I like the winter scene with lake. I think a painting has more feeling and warmth than a photograph, which is flat in comparison.
ReplyDeleteThank you for sharing these lovely paintings, Nadezda.
That's right, Betty, I love it as well.
DeleteI am not familiar with Viktor Bychkov, and am not concerned with critics who feel that it is too representative of photographs. I just know that I like it.
ReplyDeleteSo do I, Alistair.
DeleteLovely - especially the third painting from the bottom.
ReplyDeleteBlue bells and chamomile? and wild strawberries? I liked it as well especially white ribbon tied around the neck of the vase.
DeleteFantastic colorful art!
ReplyDeleteGreetings
Happy weekend, Liplatus!
DeletePara mí son dos cosas distinta Nadezda. La pintura es un gran arte y muy difícil de practicar, hay que tener un gran talento.En cambo la fotografía , cualquieramejor o pero puede hacerla.
ReplyDeletePreciosa cección!!
Buen domingo amiga;)
Besos.
Claro que son las cosas distintas, Laura, estoy de acuerdo. Viktor tiene un talento.
DeleteFeliz 1ro de Mayo!
I love all of these beautiful paintings. The way he captures the winter light in the north in the picture of the snow-covered scene with the church is very nice. That one and the samovar picture make me homesick. There is something special in each of these pictures. A very talented artist, indeed. Thank you for introducing him to us!
ReplyDeleteYou're welcome Peter! I have chosen this painting of snow-covered landscape because I liked the light and quietness.
DeleteHello, Nadezda! I had never heard of Viktor Bychkov before but these paintings are absolutely amazing!
ReplyDeleteThank you Keith!
DeleteBeautiful photos!! Thanks so much for stopping by!!
ReplyDeleteHugs,
Debbie
Thank you Debbie!
DeleteSuch an incredible style and yes! I love his still life paintings - the arrangements, so beautifully detailed and full of light and life!
ReplyDeleteI love his detailed painting as well Rosemary.
DeleteThese are all stunning, but I truly love the first one because of the simple Lily of the Valley and the soft tones. :-)
ReplyDeleteYes they are simple and nice, Judy. I agree!
