From the artist:

"A true artist is not one who is inspired, but one who inspires others." - Salvador Dali

At this event, I hope everyone will somehow be drawn into the hidden universe of an artist and appreciates the chaos. How powerfully one can be impacted in just 20 minutes while witnessing a creation of something out of nothing. Cheers to the celebration of art, togetherness, and sharing passions.

Alex

Alex's favorite animal is the turtle. His specializations are oil painting and digital painting. /sf

From the artist:

It's hard to make a living in the arts, there's a lot of worry and pressure, and not every project succeeds. Whether it's money, health, or love, anything can go wrong. Anyone who is sane would just quit. There is no point in continuing to do something you don't love. You've got to get crazy, you've got to go full tilt, Bozo.

I am very grateful for everything that Canadians do for Ukraine, for their support and sympathy... I am very sorry, do not stop and do not forget that the war is on and Ukraine will win, but with your help it will be faster!!!! Thank you very much for inviting me.
