A courtyard in Germany. Cleanliness and German order Landscape

A courtyard in Germany. Cleanliness and German order

A typical farmstead in northern Germany (Province of Schleswig-Holstein). While on a business trip, I saw this courtyard while driving by in my car. It was impossible not to stop. It appealed to me very much and I decided to paint it on paper with watercolours.

Ornament

Ornament. Ancient sacred symbols

From a physical point of view, an ornament is simply some kind of pattern that is aesthetically appealing. But this is only a superficial understanding. Such patterns are a more perfect language, in which you can talk not only with other people, but also with the Universe.
The ornaments of Petrikovsky painting were used as amulets: it is not just a tradition, it is something that really works. With the help of ornament one can express the very language of Nature, which has never been hostile to people. And by using ornaments, you can attract divine forces for your defence. It was also found out that images and patterns of our ancestors are not just drawings — they are able to deliver information to the oldest part of the brain — the medulla oblongata, where the deepest codes of our memory are stored. Thus, Petrikovsky painting is able to have a profound positive effect on both the body and consciousness of a person.
Ornaments reflect the impact of sound, and therefore such patterns themselves are also capable of structuring water and, therefore, directly influence human health, harmonise all its internal systems with nature.
Thus, clothes, rushniki embroidered with sacral ornaments, can not only correct DNA failures, improve health, harmonise consciousness, but also at a deep level to establish harmony between people and nature.
Petrikovsky painting’s ornaments are not just patterns, but sacral symbols, which are able to restore a person’s health, harmonise his consciousness, increase awareness and a sense of unity with the Universe.

Magnolia flower. The whimsical curves of petals Flowers

Magnolia flower. The whimsical curves of petals

Magnolias are blooming-
The curves of the branches are whimsical.
And our destinies?

From Japanese three verses (Haiku)

Light lines of watercolour strokes take us to a quiet garden where each magnolia branch reveals its unique beauty. The curves of the branches and rich shades of purple symbolise the whimsical play of fate and nature. The artist’s feeling, conveyed in every stroke, allows the viewer to feel the freshness and renewal inherent in the spring blooming season. The flower on the canvas, as if alive, conveys the unique melody of nature.

Violets Still life art

Violets. A symbol of true love, spring and chastity

The violet is a flower that brings nothing but good into the home. According to Feng Shui, it is practically the best houseplant; it smooths over conflicts, brings happiness and strengthens love. The violet is a multifaceted symbol, embodying modesty, chastity, tenderness and the reawakening of nature. It is associated with faithful love and spring, and, according to ancient legends, can also symbolise sorrow and remembrance of the dead. Furthermore, this flower is the emblem of Athens, a city strewn with violets.

Apples on fabric Still life art

Apples on fabric. The Airiness of Colour Harmony

This still life depicts four juicy apples arranged on a draped piece of fabric. The bright shades of red, orange and yellow on the fruit contrast with the deep purple and lilac tones of the fabric, which creates soft folds and shadows. The lightness of the watercolour technique lends the work an airy and lively quality, emphasising the interplay of light and colour. Every detail, from the delicate shimmers on the apples’ skins to the dynamic folds of the fabric, is rendered with attention to form and volume, creating a harmonious and expressive composition. This painting came about because I washed the apples and laid them out to dry on a kitchen towel. The folds of the fabric fell very picturesquely, and the combination of colours and shades turned out so harmonious that I quickly sketched it out and then put the watercolour on paper. The specificity of watercolours was able to convey the lightness of the composition and the airiness of the harmony of colours.

The Fire Rooster – a symbol of success and wealth Animals

The Fire Rooster – a symbol of success and…

The painting depicts a majestic rooster standing in profile, with his head held high. His plumage shimmers with warm shades of brown, orange and gold, with vivid splashes of green and blue that lend the feathers a sense of movement. The comb and wattle are rendered in a rich red. The rooster’s tail stands out in deep blue tones, complemented by green and red brushstrokes. The bird rests on a stylised pedestal adorned with gold coins, which lends the composition a special meaning. The work is distinguished by its vibrant palette and attention to detail.
The rooster – a symbol of the Yang element – represents active masculine energy and is endowed with many virtues. This ambitious symbol will help you achieve much in social and financial spheres, protect you from trouble and ill-wishers, and safeguard you from betrayal and treachery.
The bird embodies five virtues: courage, reliability, protection of the weak, valour in war, and nobility in peacetime. In Chinese, the words for ‘rooster’ and ‘luck’ sound the same.
An artistic depiction of a rooster can not only complement your home décor but, when placed correctly, attract prosperity and activate positive energy.

White peacock. The symbol of victory

Just as the dove symbolizes the Holy Spirit, the white peacock in Christianity often symbolizes Jesus Christ himself. In Buddhism, this bird symbolizes nirvana. In Hinduism, the most widespread religion in India, where it originated, peacocks are believed to bring good luck and prosperity. The white peacock also signifies victory
