THE ARTIST
ARTIST'S STATEMENT
Sergiy Byelov. Reside in Hull,England, UK. A self-taught emerging artist.
I have started painting when I was 39. Just picked up a brush, opened the tube of paint and started a canvas.
I spend much time on reading about methods of painting, theory of colour, history of art, visiting galleries and museums and of course painting.
Can an amateur be an artist? Do you need to be a professional to enjoy art? I have found answers to these questions for myself by now, have you?
I am not sure what exactly is my style in painting at the moment, I reckon I am still searching for it. Initially I was inspired by the Impressionists, my favourite are the works of Gustave Caillebotte and Berthe Morisot.
I love working with landscapes, enjoy painting flowers and some wildlife basing on my own photographs of the places I have been to.

AUTOBIOGRAPHY
My name is Sergiy Byelov. I am 43 and counting.
I was born in Tashkent, Uzbekistan, where I grew up and finished school , then moved to Kiev , Ukraine where I graduated from the university and got married and now reside with my family and work in Hull, UK.
Such diversity sometimes triggers various ideas of the subjects for my paintings and I think I can see everyday things in life slightly differently and do enjoy that.
The inspiration comes from world renowned masterpieces of the Impressionists as well as modern artists from different countires.
