Alexander Koltakov is Canadian painter and sculptor, works with acrylics and oils on canvases, also creates plaster on wood reliefs, or three-dimensional paintings. He is truly passionate about the amazing beauty of nature, processing it through his eyes, his mind and his hands to the stillness of canvases and plaster, aspire to express not the picture, but the life itself, without forgetting the fabulousness of human presence in it. His favorite themes are nature and human body.
On canvases he works with brushes, palette knifes and finger touch when needed.
