Hey, it's good to came back here, because it's a wide empty place and its seems quite secluded, for the reason of solitary and dreamfully peaceful mind. My recent activities which i've done about a half of year in 2019.
Was to stay away from copying and serious paintings for a while, to study a bit of music and get a pause in artworks for sometimes, i knew before in my 90s years doing a contemporary works how artists get empty and exgausted without taking a breaks.
Honestly that very feeling i started to feel in middle of winter 2019, and when time it goes for something to sell, and realized the fact the politics so strongly disadvantage the artists process, in a position of devaluation russian art across the world, it came a thought nobody wants to invest today in such things.
Having a conversation in the local artists community only approve this conclusions, that in my country only few professional artists has this financial independence and right to sell artworks in a closing art business.
So its a time to look for a permanent office job for me, but employers in an engineering service and cad projects are now been cut since 2000s and some old folks cut a suitable vacancies, on other hand my plans was to refresh my cad knowledges still very strong, and despite absolutely tough condition in which i'm, i got much positive outlook then a year ago.
My spiritual center is the Rembrandt state of mind, and in a long term period i'll be saving this philosophy to my next artworks, the process shows me how bad is to throw everything to the last drop in this glass.

Trying to avoid any politics in art, is my principe but slightly i feel how that provocation of ignorance from western front has trying to move me in to political criticism of the government and etc. The same like local Putins propagandism trying to wash my brains about western democracy, and newsmakers manipulate your sympathy or wise versa.
The only my own choice is to stay away from such kind of rioting, opposition, or any political involving companies pro-putin, or pro western.

The realization of my own philosophical and moral value is to live in harmony with humanist principles, moral and ethical norms of live, and i don't want to take a part in somebody else autocratical or government plans or any forms of radical nihilism. Let pay artists a few cents while they alive, and don't push them, in to complete poverty, when they, will pop art, every drop of stupidness from media sources.
