The creative works of Anatoly Denisov of the 80s are landscapes made using the technique of classical etching, soft varnish, aquatint, lavis.

In parallel with etching, watercolor painting entered the sphere of the artist’s creative interests. Watercolor is often called a feeling captured in color, so great are its possibilities.
