Brush and Paints

I started to paint about 30 years ago. I took the lessons in the studio, but not many. At first my works were for studio, I drew in pencil, ink, watercolor, tempera and oil paints.

I liked to paint still life, landscapes and flowers. My works are not professional, I'm only the amateur painter.  

So do not judge me strictly!
