Original painting
This artwork presents a surreal scene of a solitary figure standing precariously on a fragmented wooden structure against a vivid blue sky. The character holds a newspaper, seemingly oblivious to the perilous gaps in the planks beneath. Above, colorful balloons float, juxtaposing the architectural chaos. A lone autumn leaf drifts nearby, evoking change and transience. The composition leads the eye from the grounded, intricate details of the wooden beams to the airy, open sky, conveying a sense of precarious balance between ambition and reality. The juxtaposition of everyday objects with extraordinary circumstances creates a narrative of exploration and uncertainty. The bold colors and expressive brushwork amplify the tension and whimsy of this thought-provoking piece.
Presentation
Born in the village of Ostrov, what a beautiful name, located in the Rivne region. His parents were teachers; his mother taught elementary school, and his father was a geography teacher and school principal. “I had a happy childhood. If there's a paradise on Earth, it's in childhood. Our village is situated on the right bank of the Styr River, and beyond the village, there is a beautiful lake and forest…" the artist shares his memory.
He studied at Ivan Franko National University of Lviv, majoring in geography (1976 – 1981). He worked at one of the research institutes in Lviv, dealing with cartography and aerial photography. He started painting at the age of 32 or 33. He was gifted a book by A. Winner, “How to Work on Landscape Painting with Oil Colors." Getting acquainted with it gave him a strong impetus to seriously engage in painting. “I appreciate the painting of various times and artists, including Velázquez, Rubens, Post-Impressionists, D. Burlyuk, M. Boychuk and the Boychukists, and in the realm of sculpture – O. Archipenko. In painting, color is a priority for me…" Leonid explains.
He creates urban landscapes, scenery, still lifes, nudes, abstract and graphic works, and illustrates books. He works in various techniques.
