Etude is a notebook of the artist.
Plein-air painting.
Work on the nature is fine school for the artist. Experience in dialogue with the nature, studying of it, gives the possibility more deeply investigate it and to express this understanding new plastic means. The artist, as though, merges with surrounding nature, studies at it and the nature becomes the full co-author of the artist. Result of such creativity is etudes. To my mind etudes have a big and value.
The etude is a creative diary of the artist, his notebook, which stores not only images and motives, but also mood, ideas and a condition of the artist. This etude is valuable by its emotional riches, direct impression and by the sincerity. Free and liberated art and richness of colours are fixing and developing in etudes. Features of intimacy and lyricism are inherent in etudes.
The main goal in writing of an etude is to transfer all complex of the impressions; to see, seize and transfer mutual relations of all parts of represented moments, both colors and forms. At writing of details, it is necessary to study to feel - to see a nature as in general, simultaneously and visual perception will be integral, united, if separate parts of the image are in correct, as in a nature, correlation.
The close attitude to a nature opens before the artist new creative opportunities are gives also the strong base to creation of greater products of painting.
