Igor Shulman Paintings

Usually this color scheme matches the glamor. But in the glamorous atmosphere, everything is OK. Doubt or reflection is not allowed. But have you noticed the concern and doubt in the...

Attention ACTION !!! From today to December 31 of this year. 2 + 1. Anyone who buys 2 of my paintings will receive a third from me as a gift. All previously announced discounts on ...

This lovely girl looks very harmoniously surrounded by pigeons. The picture sounds very metaphorical. As a symbol of the resurgent China. As a symbol of tomorrow's freedom. And I do ...

In this artwork, I aim to capture the idea that the past inevitably catches up with us, regardless of our efforts to control it. It can come to us unexpectedly, triggered by various ...

It seems to you that this work is about a naked woman. It is not right. This is a work about light. About twilight incomplete light. About how this light affects the body. About what...

High in the sky, behind the clouds or within the clouds themselves, the muses live. They dance and sing all day long. They do everything to make their beloved feel good on Earth. The...

Something I was again carried away by undressed women. As an image object. I used to draw a lot of them, then I interrupted not for long. I thought that this old age crept on soft p...

If you have a dog and you live in a big city, then this picture will remind you of many things. Who just can not meet at night walk. Sometimes people come across quite nice ones. Som...

In my long professional life I have had hundreds of contacts with women. They were professional models or ordinary women. Many of them posed for my paintings. Partially naked or nake...

News cannot be the same for everyone. For some, this is the most pleasant news in the world. For some, it's the opposite. For this fish, the news turned out to be the last resort. ...

Attention action!!!!! As always at the end of the year I announce another 2+1 promotion. It means that any of you who will buy 2 paintings from me will get the third one as a gift. ...

I thought for a long time about what to call this still life. I want to paint it more and more. Old, forgotten things. No one wants them anymore. Their appearance amuses and surpris...

This study is about the boundaries of anything. Boundaries of light and shadow, color boundaries. Boundaries of what's allowed. Boundaries of the unacceptable. Boundaries of beau...

Old people are strange creatures. I love drawing old people. Each of them is a separate universe. Regardless of sex. Everything is fine in them, except health. They are tired. The cr...

Wings, like hands, feet, or ears, are perceived by us as a pair. Inexistent without each other. I thought exactly the same until I read the beautiful parable of the wing. I won't qu...

Let everyone determine for himself what kind of city it is. In fact, it could be any city. You won't see anything geographically noteworthy in the picture. There is no indication of...

This work is more about fatigue than erotica. Each of you must have experienced this. When you don’t even have the strength to take a shower before going to bed. And you do it auto...

First job this year. It's more of a holiday joke. I decided to do it in magenta color. And only because it's one of my favorite colors. And not because some clever guy declared magen...

If anyone else doesn't know who Azrael is, I'll explain. In Eastern mythology, he's the angel of death. I've imagined what the angel of death might look like today. Apparently he l...

These guys really like playing balls. They even invited the photographer so that he captures them in their favorite game. :: Painting :: Photorealism :: This piece comes with an offi...

As you can well understand, this sketch is not about soup. It is an allegory of something unpleasant, undesirable. It's a study about mood. This girl's emotions. Do you remember whe...

Do you remember how all these reminders end? I tried to make this picture as neutral as possible, in terms of nationality. You will not find a single direct hint of a particular cou...

Turns out there's a breed of sheep that has white wool and a black head. It looks so stylish, I couldn't pass it up. Here he is, look at him. But of course it's not that simple and...

The Limits of Pleasure. Do you think they even exist? Limiting yourself is simple, a matter of motivation. But limiting one's own pleasure, one's own joy, is not very easy. I'm fa...

This is the simplest and lightest still life of this whole project. What can I tell you when the content is so obvious. I didn't use any complicated stitched up metaphors. There ar...

An unremarkable Mediterranean courtyard. Life seems to have stopped here 100 years ago. The same thing happens every day. Every day, day after day. One generation succeeds another an...

Sometimes it seems to me that I was there. At NY in 1959. Or am I confusing this with London? Or with Toronto? And my friend or father gets wet under the umbrella? Or a simple unemp...

Have you realized why I made this sketch? Why do artists even do preliminary sketches? And why do they need them and in what quality can they be exhibited or sold? Very funny ques...

I recently came across an interesting aphorism. It sounds French in the original. And it sounds delightful. Don't say how many years you've lived, say what you've lived for. It rea...

Sometimes it happens. you see a person and immediately realize they're from another planet. Maybe not literally, but mentally. The person is living in a parallel reality. And he doe...

Another middle-aged painting from the storeroom. It so happened that I do not have a single photograph of my grandfathers. They were killed many years before I was born. In the 30s...

You think it started 500 years ago? You're partly right. But the real exploration began, in my opinion, in the late 1940s. That's when the great event happened. America started movin...

I already have 2 works with the same title. But they are about something else. But what is this line about? The same thing it's always been about. The line between the real and the ...

ATTENTION !!! PROMOTION 2 + 1 The traditional autumn sale is declared open. Hooray!!! The meaning of this action is clear to everyone. You buy 2 paintings from me, the third you ...

The most unpleasant thing for me in this life is to wait. Any queue of people more than 3 people drives me into depression. If someone is late for a meeting, I worry about that perso...

What do you think is stronger than physics or metaphysics? Is it possible only by the force of one's conviction to refute the force of gravity? In my opinion, yes. The inner streng...

You seem so grown up to yourself. And you act like an adult. You copy them in everything. Trying to become like them. You're doing pretty well. But the problem is that you don't see...

I drew a lot of falling people, but this is something else. My people don't fall, they float. Modern physicists say that God is gravity. This is the only force that keeps our world ...

As a child I had the feeling that the whole city I lived in consisted of nothing but fences. Back then it was customary to enclose everything. That is, everything that could be surro...

This job is over 10 years old. In strange ways, she traveled around the world until she returned to me again. Usually I am very critical of my old paintings. This is not the case. ...

Women are completely different. It does not depend on whether they are good or evil. Dressed or undressed. Married or not. It depends on the degree of frankness of the woman. From th...

I think this is the beginning of the 1920s. At that time people went to the beach clothed and it was considered the norm. It's a funny story. I'm far from judging the mores of this...

The project is progressing, and based on the positive feedback and engagement received, it seems to have generated significant interest among the audience. As a result, I am delighte...

Project "Photos from a trash bin". # 1 I have always been attracted by spoiled pictures. What is called a technical defect. Something that definitely flies into the trash. In fact,...

Sometimes it happens. Two random people met, but at first glance it is clear that this meeting is not accidental. And that this acquaintance will be continued. And about the relation...

I especially love this moment. A short pause before starting. Nerves are taut like springs. In a moment, music will sound and the ballerina will explode. The dance will begin and eve...

You have to understand one simple thing. almost everyone has a wife. Even the pathologists, cops and stokers. This sad inevitability led me to one sad thought. I think that every wi...

It is that silence that occurs before the first note. The silence of anticipation. In a moment the hall will be filled with music. The whole place will burst into a firework of sound...

I've never done a self-portrait. Not because I'm some kind of freak or I do not like myself. I absolutely normal person. I love me. But drawing a self-portrait does not seem to me a ...

Have you ever felt this moment? When the last note has already sounded, but the audience is still silent. They are still listening by inertia. They have not yet realized that they ne...

How do you talk on the phone? In what position? Does the topic of conversation and the interlocutor influence your position? Remember in the old movies, when a man spoke to his boss...

In fact, I like today's youth. And if I slightly troll this audience, it’s out of great sympathy. I love their extravagance, their quirks, their language of self-expression and se...

I've never been to a production meeting in my life. I can not even imagine what it really is. But if these meetings take place in reality, then it is probably in such a form. So, in ...

I have always been attracted by spoiled pictures. What is called a technical defect. Something that definitely flies into the trash. In fact, they have a lot of hidden meanings and ...

You may have already opened your eyes. Or maybe you're just getting ready to do it. But it doesn't really matter. Because you know that with your eyes open and closed, the result wil...

This is another piece from the endless After Party series. This series originated over 10 years ago. I used to number works within a series. But then I got confused and lost count. ...

I more and more often seem to myself like this here's a donkey. Benefits of lying donkey is not much. But he does not bring harm either. Maybe he works from dawn to dusk for a handfu...

In fact, this is my refreshed and corrected work. I did it about 3 years ago. To me she seemed dull and faded. I tried to give her a little life. As flav...

My parents never had such a car. They don't even look like my parents at all. It is rather a metaphor. Parents in general. People from another world. These are those who are no lon...

On the one hand parting is always a sad story. On the other hand, it is always a new opportunity. Ability to close one page and open a new one. The opportunity to leave everything th...
