Great Painting - Dmitry Lenkov







































My interest in art started with a recent visit of a art gallery in TsimShatsui, Hong Kong. The world of art is very deep and there are so many artists and many nice painting to choose from. What captured my eyes were scenaries of Russia, a country that I have read about during my University days.
Of the many Russian artists, the work of Dmitry Lenkov has caotured my eyes as I like the scenary of a rainy day being captured in his work!
One day, I shall visist Russia!
