This is an original oil on canvas. I use only a palette-knife for painting. I have not used a brush in this painting. I use only natural oil paint and 100% pure cotton canvas. This painting will be available for auction on www.afremov.com

Each original oil painting by Leonid Afremov is truly a one-of-a-kind unique piece of art. With his artwork in private and public collections throughout the world, the purchase of an Afremov original is a great investment as his artwork continues to appreciate.

I'm a professional artist. i paint with palette knife with oil on canvas. Art is my life and I paint every single day. it makes me happy to see people enjoying my art. God gave me a gift of being able to paint good and I thank him for that everyday buy painting and having my art affordable to buy. I was born in city of Vitebsk in 1955. Amazingly enough I was born in the same town as Marc Chagall, the famous artist who also founded the Vitebsk Art School along with Malevich & Kandinsky. I graduated from Vitebsk Art School in 1978 and is one of the elite members.



I tried different techniques during my career, but I especially fell in love with painting with oil and pallette-knife. Every artwork is the result of long painting process; every canvas is born during the creative search; every painting is full of my inner world. Each of my paintings brings different moods, colors and emotions. I love to express the beauty, harmony and spirit of this world in my paintings. My heart is completely open to art. Thus, I enjoy creating inspired and beautiful paintings from the bottom of my soul. Each of my artworks reflects my feelings, sensitivity, passion, and the music from my soul. True art is alive and inspired by humanity. I believe that art helps us to be free from aggression and depression.

Currently my art is being collected all over the world. There are many pleased collectors in the USA, Israel, Italy, France, England, Spain, Norway, Canada, Australia, New Zealand and other countries. Presently it is just enough to type my name in an internet search engine to discover the value and magnificence of my Art.

I was browsing through amazon and I found this: [link] I recognized it as your art and it didn't seem like it was legal, I didn't see any crediting to you. Just thought you should know, if you aren't already aware of this :/

Bon après-midi, I am always such a fan of your work. It quite literally takes my breath away. I had a question though, do you draw before you paint ever? or free hand everything?

I discovered you almost a year ago, and i just fell in love with your art! I attend a school art, in Italy, and the next painting I'm going to carry out is going to be one of yours. I just love you! *-*

I was watching some of your demonstrations on YouTube. I am grateful that you've made your techniques accessible, and they do seem possible to attempt to emulate. I almost prefer working exclusively with the pallet knife, as well.

It seems, with these landscapes, that you might be painting "from your mind".
Is that the case, or do you use any reference images?

You are an extremely talented artist, I would be honored to have any of images grace my home, but all I can do is take a screen shot of my desktop and show that too you, please continue to allow us to see your fantastic work
