Self-portrait under linden trees

Optical illusions, artistic illusion of sight, mind games - these are the favorite techniques that the modern Ukrainian artist Oleg Shuplyak often uses in his painting. Oleg Shuplyak is an architect by education, but has been teaching drawing and painting for a long time, starting from school in his native village, and continuing - at the art school in the city of Berezhany. Despite the fact that the artist's portfolio contains countless traditional paintings, it is the unconventional one that attracts attention - the so-called "paintings with a double meaning", according to the author's terminology.
