I was born on December 2, 1954 in the village of Malaya Slepyanka , now - a part of the city of Minsk.
Grandfather's home ( 9h12m ), where she was the whole of our large family, stood on the site of almost one and a half hectares. At our garden flowed a river Slepyanka . In the summer we caught it and loach minnow , and winter riding there skating and goats - small tubes, specially curved something like scooters on the skids.
Now there are none, as there is no bending of the river , pushed into a large, straight pipe . (For some reason a lot of time in the life and art of people are trying to simplify and straighten ).
We just went for what is now an artificial lake with the waterfalls. Close by was the cinema " Change" and a shooting gallery, arranged in an old bus . All pocket money ' Piglet ' remained there.
In the three years I izrisoval all the wallpaper, and my mom , Krischanovich Akhmatova , I realized that I was " a great artist ." She bought me a paint color crayons , pencils ...

   School time was incredibly interesting. The class in which I was , and today can be called " superclass ." All painted and everything. The desire to become a real artist , to learn skills not leave for a minute. Even at night, by all means , we penetrated into the workshop to draw, draw, draw ... On the views exhibited a large number of tracks and options homework ( a hundred or more). Children's enthusiasm never waned, and the sense of competition was a good incentive to work and study.

As " the best student among the boys" , three times I have been to Union Pioneer Camp "Artek" Lenin . This made ​​such a strong impression , just a shock ... First Love, Ayu -Dag Adalary , Black Sea , shells, fruit soup, pine nuts ... - heaven on earth. By the way , I scored and it became a "knight of Artek ."
   Childhood I recall a bright , clean, happy ... More life on the road was far more severe rules: in a collision with reality, the system is able to repay the innermost hopes and distinctive gift.

" Volodarka " - Mogilev - it's 15/15 - black bread - jam - life - death ... and again my mother saved me through the Supreme Court of the USSR sought to overturn the absurd charges , punishment. My early release . A year later, I'm back in college and the Komsomol.
