SUNNY SOUL IN CEREAL STALKS
Mykola Klymovych, master of folk art of Ukraine (1998), who became not only the founder of the Small Art and Folk Trades Academy in Ovruchyn (Zhytomyr region) — the first educational art institution in the region — but also its director, has the same sunny soul. Anatoliy Shevchuk, expert in art, rather emotionally and in details tells readers about the master's (and teacher's) creative searches and further art developments in decorative art of straw wicker, his ability to find his own style of expression in applications from grain crops sterns. His works conditionally can be divided into the following topics: flower compositions of ethnographical reading and compositions with many figures from Rus-Ukraine history of the prince era and Orthodox Christianity.
