Egypt. Coronavirus. A hit to the tourism industry —…

Illustration of events March 2020 — January 2022.

One of the most affected sectors of the global economy by quarantine restrictions is tourism. Countries with a significant share of tourism in their economies have suffered the most. Egypt is one such country. It is not only people who have suffered from the covid restrictions there.

And the camel was very surprised because he was not wearing a mask. How do you explain to a man that everyone needs protection?!

Sunrise over Kiev. Heavenly symbols

I painted this picture a week after the war started. At that time we were even in the sky trying to see some kind of clue. After painting this picture, I came up with the idea to create a collection of ‘Heavenly Signs’, which depicts the consciousness’ perception of the surrounding world in a critical situation

Flowers

Sunflowers in a vase. Sunshine in the flowers

Summer is coming to the end and, as always, it leaves us with many gifts — different vegetables, fruits and, of course, flowers. Sunflowers are my favourite summer flowers — very bright and beautiful, which lifts the mood. They are always looking at the sun, and the sun is reflected in them. That’s why each flower looks so much like a little sunshine. As Helen Keller wrote, — Hold your face to the sun and you can’t see the shade. That’s exactly what sunflowers do

Religious art

Saint Nicholas. The image on canvas of the Icon

Saint Nicholas of Myra also known as Nicholas of Bari, was an early Christian bishop of Greek descent from the maritime city of Patara in Anatolia (in modern-day Antalya Province, Turkey) during the time of the Roman Empire. Because of the many miracles attributed to his intercession, he is also known as Nicholas the Wonderworker. Saint Nicholas in the East is the patron saint of travellers, prisoners and orphans, in the West — the patron saint of almost all strata of society, but mainly children. His legendary habit of secret gift-giving gave rise to the folklore of Santa Claus («Saint Nick») through Sinterklaas.
The original image is a fresco in St Sophia Cathedral in Kiev.
Painting decorated with a dutch gold.

The Virgin of Vladimir (Vladimirskaya also known as Vyshgorodskaya), also known as Vladimir Mother of God, Our Lady of Vladimir, the earliest known surviving icon and one of the most honoured miracle-working icons of the Russian Orthodox Church.
According to the 15th century legend (in the lists of the ‘Tale of Temir-Aksak’), the icon was painted by the Evangelist Luke. According to the legend, the icon has got to Constantinople from Jerusalem in V century at emperor Theodosius II.
To Russia the icon has got from Byzantium about 1130 as a gift to sacred Kiev prince Mstislav Vladimirovich. The icon was delivered by the Greek Metropolitan Michael, who arrived in Kiev from Constantinople in 1130.

Niagara river. The great power of water

It’s not ‘just a lot of water’ — it’s really a lot of water, an entire full-flowing river, wide and powerful, with clear blue water, framed by rocky steep high banks with periodically dense vegetation, then falling down a horseshoe-shaped cliff with a powerful waterfall, demonstrating the majestic power of the water element. I was enthralled by the unforgettable sight. This journey will be remembered for a lifetime.
