Artist Statement:
Valery Rybakow - a bright, original artist, whose work is based on a combination of various styles and art: the artist's brushwork is close
to the art of realism, open colour palette of his works, the transmission multicolour life and joy of life, is characteristic of
Impressionism; direct perception of the world - of naive art.
Currently in the works of Valery Rybakow dominated by still life and landscape.
Nature proved to be remarkably in tune with the artist's inner perception of the world, so it works regardless of the chosen genre, organically, missed "by itself". In the landscape artist, filled with the play of light, captured the unique beauty of native
wildlife: warm golden colours of autumn, the variety of flowers, the endless expanses of the fields.
“My heart is completely open to art. Thus, I enjoy creating inspired and beautiful paintings from the bottom of my soul. Each of my
artworks reflects my feelings, sensitivity, passion, and the music from my soul. True art is alive and inspired by humanity. I believe
that art helps us to be free from aggression and depression.

Artistic Influences:
Art can destroy and heal the human soul, defile and educate. And only a light of art can save mankind: it heals the wounds, gives hope for the future, is the world of love and happiness.
I tried different techniques during my career, but I especially fell in love with painting with oil and pallette-knife. Every artwork is the result of long painting process; every canvas is born during the creative search; every painting is full of my inner world. Each of my paintings brings different moods, colours and emotions. I love to express the beauty, harmony and spirit of this world in my paintings
