Since 1990, Medvedev has been painting full time and exhibiting his work in various galleries and salons. His first solo exhibition took place in November 1990 at the Lithuanian State Youth Theater in Vilnius. His paintings are regularly displayed at the galleries Kitay-Gorod and Fleyta in Moscow and at the Prefecture of Zelenograd. Many of Medvedev's works were also acquired by private collectors.
