- Please show a little about yourself and exactly how you get entered an uncommon art - marquetry.
- I became born in Sokol, Vologda region, my family is certainly creative individuals. Based on the stories of his father, mygrandfather, who died at the front in 1943 in Leningrad, he was obviously a famous cabinetmaker. A grandmother was engaged in lace(weaving Vologda lace) and was considered one of the masters in the industry among the best. Her works were for export only. Myfather - also comprehensively developed personality about him said: Master golden hands
My desire for a variety of applied art began in his school years: woodcut, relief carving, geometrical carving, chasing, - it absolutely was interesting. But a really strong impression on me the picture I saw, came once to go to an associate. It absolutely was a small operation onRussian folk tales, carved from pieces of different kinds of wood and composed being a mosaic, in one unit. I then was surprised, as much as possible, using only natural wood devoid of the colors, make sport of texture and color to decide on ??? Only years later Ilearned it had become my first encounter with marquetry style. Gone include the years and decades is to learn this art and master it toperfection.
- Earlier in Russia could order items with marquetry only loaded people, today your situation is different or wooden inlay isstill only accessible on the elite?
- Indeed, before such products in tsarist Russia could afford only very wealthy people - Count Sheremetev, Golitsyn, Tsar AlexeiMikhailovich as well as the court nobility. I do think that today the specific situation have not changed. True inlay available continues to be exactly the elite, butnew technologies let produce simplified varieties of marquetry, but you are far inferior to manual work. No doubt that theproduct placed on stream, won't be the masterpieces of the highest level.

- Continuing development of the Russian school of marquetry was closely linked to the growth and development of this art in various Europeancountries. Teachers of Russian masters were outstanding artists of Italy, France, Holland. This, for me, is because of the possible lack of a unified style, a kind of layering, that has been the hallmark on this type of art in Russia. We had been in a position to take in the best of the setand create something with their diversity.
- In tsarist Russia unit is only able to deal with marquetry, this type of art require special knowledge and talent. What number of artists today,in a position to create masterpieces away from wood?
- Currently, the true masters, able to create masterpieces of wood Body, because this form of art requires perseverance, attention,knowledge of the various types of trees, the experience of taste, style and skill to post a tree colored, texture. Specialists, whoare keen on marquetry may be called with the names of everyone who is considered an expert in cases like this. Each master their ownstyle, a unique personality.
- As much as today, popular products, manufactured in the style of marquetry? All things considered, they are more like the traditions of bygone centuriesand poorly joined with modern design.
