The Easel Gallery, located in the center of St. Petersburg, on Bolshaya Konyushennaya Street, invites you to visit the opened exhibition, where connoisseurs of graphic art will be able to get acquainted with new works by St. Petersburg artists.

Among the authors represented at the exhibition are the works of young artists, whose talent is only beginning to flourish, but works done using the watercolor and pastel techniques are already worthy of the attention of art lovers of this genre. While in their luggage there are not so many written works, but young talents - Elmira Mustafina, Anastasia Dukhanina and Rodion Polozov are likely to have many exhibitions with new works ahead. Moreover, you can start learning skills immediately at the exhibition, which is open until October 28th.

Together with a demonstration of the creativity of young artists, the gallery delighted visitors of the exhibition with a meeting with the works of the famous pastel master, an artist from St. Petersburg Sergey Usik. His professionalism is recognized in all countries where he demonstrated his work. Sergey Usik has more than 25 years of work experience in this genre of graphic art.

All these years, the artist has been steadily improving his skills, because the grace of pastel technique, combined with the richness of colors, allows the master to create an unusual world of drawing that captivates the viewer. But at the same time, pastel work does not tolerate negligence, at the slightest manifestation of it, losing all attractiveness. Pastel works require accuracy, do not provide the possibility of correction, but at the same time the application of several layers of color gives the drawing a special depth.

Sergey Usik received awards in many international competitions, was an honored guest at the pastel festival in France.
