Stumble it!Leonid Afremov is a Belarus born, Israeli modern painter who creates unique landscapes, cityscapes and figures using a palette knife rather than a brush to paint.
“I tried different techniques during my career, but I especially fell in love with painting with oil and pallette-knife. Every artwork is the result of long painting process; every canvas is born during the creative search; every painting is full of my inner world. Each of my paintings brings different mood, colors and emotions. I love to express the beauty, harmony and spirit of this world in my paintings. My heart is completely open to art. Thus, I enjoy creating inspired and beautiful paintings from the bottom of my soul. Each of my artworks reflects my feelings, sensitivity, passion, and the music from my soul. True art is alive and inspired by humanity. I believe that art helps us to be free from aggression and depression.“

Hi Leonid, As soon as I saw your first painting. the couple with the umbrella, it just excited me so much: the vibrancy of color and movement and the brilliant lighting. I was even more excited to hear that you are an Israeli artist hence I have a special interest in Israel. I haven\\\’t seen contemporary art from there yet. Very interesting. I was born in Finland but live in Tasmania, Australia. I attend art school here. Thanks.
