About the book: 2021 / Collection of poems about artists, painting and the sensations that come to the artist during the creative process. This is an attempt to describe in words the beauty of Nature through the artist’s vision of it, to convey his understanding and sense of color, to talk about colors and colors with ironic humor and romantic lyrics. One chapter is dedicated to women who are “hard to live without.” Some poems are illustrated with the author's own paintings. And the fly agaric in this book is considered as the brightest object in an ordinary forest, which the artist cannot pass by indifferently.
