Yakovlev Anton

The artist was born in 1982 in Kaliningrad. In order to better convey his idea, the author used to draw from photographs for a long time. However, now he takes the subject "from his head", combining what he has seen with his memories.

This makes the drawing more free and brings it closer to the way children draw. 

His subjects are a diary of everyday life, romanticisation of everyday life, notes on impressions, observation and outlining of life.

"To better convey my vision, I used to paint from photographs for a long time. But now I like to take subjects from my head. I like to combine what I see with my memories. This makes drawing more free and brings it closer to the way children draw.

A man quickly gets used to life and stops noticing the simple beauty of existence. But an artist is endowed with the gift of noticing the beautiful, and is able to see and then transfer his feeling to the canvas, showing the viewer his view of the world."

Yakovlev Anton, an artist
