serge marshennikov

It's today an artist to discover and be surprised for the great use of light that he makes on his canvases and that demonstrate the great quality that this painter named Serge Marshennikov treasures.

It has some studies on clothes of a brilliant manufacture, and the use of textures is another of his great qualities to learn even from himself. We will not know if in 100 years we will find this artist swarming museums around the world, but his human gaze on the models he is painting is worth mentioning. A great painter.

One of Marshennikov's own words about his paintings: «I work with models to make my paintings. It is quite tiring for them to be posing while I work to find colors and the right composition, to find the perfect pose for this type of person, distribute the masses that surround them, all the lines, diagonals and textures. So I must coordinate the position of the feet and hands, distribute those fingers well, if they should reveal something or simply hide it in order to change the light«.

Esto takes ahead of 40 to 100 hours and not all artists have the economy to pay a model, since they do not charge little either. What is advised is that a live model is always used before a photograph, although the latter can be of great value and if not ask Francis Bacon.
