From the interview to “C de L’ART” Magazine n°21 – France/ Paris :

« I have two passions: painting and music. All of my works have been created in tandem with sound. »
Serguei Borodouline is an experienced Russian artist based in Canada whose paintings have been featured in national exhibitions. Working in oil and acrylic on canvas, he does not limit himself to one artistic genre and paints everything from surrealist landscapes to fantastical portraits. His work is characterized by a blue and purple color palette and each painting is full of imaginative possibilities.”
