All this she has gained in the class of well-known landscape painter Vasily Nikolaevich Baksheeva. "A remarkable teacher, first of all, - says Galina Gavrilovna about him - he knew how to present the nature and art in indissoluble unity, that is reality, image and the possibility of its realization. He succeeded, and we teach it. " Outdoor work on the landscape originally lay in the creative method, VN Baksheeva as a prominent representative of the Moscow school of landscape painting, which amounted to the glory of A. Savrasov, V. Polenov, A. Vasnetsov, Nesterov.

In 1942, Galina Gavrilovna finishing Art school. In 1945 she became the wife of prominent Belarusian sculptor Zaire Isaakovich Azgura and moved to Belarus. In 1946, enters into the Belarusian Union of Artists, and from 1947 began its active exhibition activities.

Field problems of landscape painting artist practice was far from it. Sharing the theoretical considerations and wishes, he could not overshadow their preferences and principles of their own views Galina Gavrilovna. Joint visits to nature, during which Galina Gavrilovna worked, and Zaire Isaakovich rested, were infrequent, but very expensive for them minutes, carried out with each other, nature and art. Ability to combine personal relationships and creative activity, of course, enriching both artists.

Landscapes Galina Azgur distinguishes constancy lyrical intonation. She seemed to exploring and oblyubovyvaet random in nature in search of a permanent. She looks for patterns in the fleeting movements of its endless cycle. The results of the observations of the artist translates the language of color and form. It combines compositional and color quality of construction, creating the impression of a smooth mood and deep inner life of nature images.

In each painting the artist is based, as a rule, the predominance of one tone. In its elected major "theme" coloristic sound woven consonant tones, among which is more vivid and muted. This approach is intuitively perceived from the real Belarusian nature. In the pale Belarusian landscapes any season dominated by one color, while a special light and atmosphere acts as a visually unifying principle. This subtly moving unity, as usual permanent and infinitely unique ratio of heaven and earth, the artist impresses in complete tranquility landscapes, re-learning the subtle moods of nature. Reflecting them with unaffected simplicity, it tends to cause the viewer with a sense natural, organic human, albeit invisible, presence in the world of nature. This is possible only when the landscape "seen", and thus transformed into an artistic image that is stored in the memory longer than the visual impression.

Written from nature, landscapes Galina Gavrilovna quietly become part of our inner life. When an artist writes, for example, the motif of the March evening - and she wrote not only the woods, but a calm quiet awakening of nature, and that fleeting light sorrow which so often accompanied by a human soul stirring feelings of joy updates.

Work in the open air at once developed in the creation of a sketch of the future picture. Casual look "disciplined", subject to certain, pre-chosen composite decision, prompted by contemplative nature and the laws, learned from the time of artistic theory and practice.

Galina Azgur prefers calm balanced composition with a dimly expressed diagonal, which allows soft as to avoid monotony images, and an unnecessary fuss. In the works always dominates the foreground - one of the characteristic methods of the Moscow school, which also include certain liveliness "staging" and the overall static.

Characteristic for the Moscow school of painting and the richness of the palette, the depth of imaginative solutions, the combination of the subtleties of light and air plein air letter and contract prescription sites. For example, the "Old Spruce" Galina Azgur the manner of filing of the composition and interpretation of subtle shades of green like shady bowl "Roads in the forest", performed by a teacher in 1937.

"When I walk in the woods, I hear the sound of tree crowns, my eye catches the swing leaves, I see how running on top of the cloud. But all that I perceive not "track" of the future picture, not as an excuse for colouristic experiments. First of all, I am looking for means to transfer a piece of the spirituality of nature, which in this case I'm watching: It is necessary to feel the unique charm, combining all the elements of primitiveness of colors, sounds, light and shade, to be able to discern the particular "expression" of each piece of nature! "- Said V. N. Baksheev, and this legacy of his teacher Belarusian landscape Galina Gavrilovna Azgur true to this day.
