But the priestly activity soon ceased to attract. Already in his childhood began to be detected in it the ability to draw, but in adolescence, especially during his stay in Odessa, under the influence of the southern sea, with its enchanting beauty of it finally woke up artist, and he became one of the most ardent visitors Drawing School Odessa community art lovers.

Watery element, he studied in all respects with a striking artistic allegiance was able to pass it quiet, its transparency, its vastness, the play in her solar and lunar rays in calm weather, menacing grandeur of a storm.
