Artist Showcase: Nikita Druzhinin (G8)

Please stop by Nikita’s personal art exhibition in front of the library (foyer area) any time during school hours (on show now until next week)!

 

VIENNA

Nikita Druzhinin / G8 /2022

 

In this exhibition I am displaying my oil paintings. There are some new and some old ones. My style of painting changes dramatically each time I start painting, especially If I take a break from it. This time I took a long break from oil until a documentary about Francis bacon gave me the push to take the brush once again. I don’t have really have anything to say about my art. My style changes all the time and I don’t have one sort of “trade mark” style. I am still in the stage of doing weird things until I understand what is given to me. However, I call myself an impressionist because I can’t have a clear image in my head of anything, it’s always just a stain of colors and sounds, an impression, be it a person’s face or a city. I decided to call this exhibition, “Vienna” in the end, for reasons I can’t really explain, I just miss my home.
