Almost all of the artist's works were created on the basis of sketch material from a variety of trips. But the basis of creativity is Kabardino-Balkaria. He gives her unchanging love. The artist not only admires the landscapes of the republic, but subtly feels the charm of winter dawns in the mountains, spring floods of rivers, flowering dogwood and the most delicate aromas of flowering meadows, bringing into his works an unusually delightful state of nature. And this state allows you to fill the picturesque canvas with a sense of the harmony of the world around us.
