Charming old streets and the banks of the Volga River in Saratov, the romantic canals of Venice and laconic, dim views of St. Petersburg and its suburbs, strict graphic silhouettes of Stockholm - all loved landscape motifs watercolors and drawings of the famous painter Eugene Bocharov Saratov. He is a virtuoso, fluent in watercolor technique, especially his beloved, and particularly difficult, not allowing alterations and corrections. Works can not stay in the studio. Beautiful, emotionally-filled, giving a sense of emotional equilibrium, they resonate with the audience and literally "fly" around the world. Graphic works of Eugene Bocharov presented in Saratov Radischevskaya Museum and other museums in our city, in numerous private collections.
The author of this work was seriously vocational education. In his native Saratov Eugene graduated from children's art school and art school. A gifted teacher, a thoughtful artist modest GY Kharkiv correctly assessed the talent and creativity of the future direction of the landscape. Later, in the Moscow Polygraphic Institute, E. Bocharov deepen their knowledge in the field of composition and drawing, trying to work in a replicable (print) techniques - etching, lithography. Illustration and design books published by Saratov University and other printing enterprises in the city Eugene Bocharov gave decades of his life. An important factor in its further development was the experience of teaching composition and drawing on their own developed technique in the Saratov children's art school.

sometimes solitary, but often animated miniature figures of people, landscapes Eugene Bocharova possess the attractiveness, the modest and gentle charm, which gives us the nature itself. In this artist close creative manner Alexei Bogolyubov, highly esteemed by his master. It is just like a sailor and an artist-AA Bogolyubov, likes to write motifs, including water. This is the Volga, wide, free, the water is colored rays of the setting sun, and the dark canals of Venice, and the cold gray waves of Lake Ladoga and the Baltic.
Venice, in which the artist has visited only once, in 1996, forever captured him with his romantic beauty. Because of the incessant glare of water playing on the walls of houses and churches in this beautiful city at times seems unreal, enchanted, elusive. Send this peculiarity - a very difficult and fascinating artist's task, but the momentum, the impression of image in Venice are so strong that after years of master accesses these reasons.
Landscapes IE Bocharova surprisingly reliable, and the artist specifically emphasizes the characteristic signs and features of architecture. Often, the determining is the sky blue is calm, as in the Venetian scene, a cold, gray, built on subtle gradations - to species Petersburg, Helsinki and Stockholm. There is in them, and something more elusive, Unexplained words, some feeling, mood, poured in a landscape and lets you know the motive. Maybe that's why reproduce his graphic sheets is very difficult: they are sensitive to the slightest violations of color harmony.
Picture in picture sheets E. Bocharova constructive, rosaries, it defines the composition - a balanced, devoid of unnecessary details and details. Colors "rhyme", alternate, balancing and gently flowing into each other. All together creates a "melody" sheet. Sometimes it seems that its white surface colors staged virtuoso piano pieces ( "On the Grand Canal. Venice," "Sunny Murano"), sometimes, in urban, vibrant landscapes crowded streets, as if the melody sounds a little hoarse accordion ( "Last day of winter . Saratov). Especially nice winter landscapes of the Saratov old courtyards and gardens, built on the subtle, complex gradations of white, such as "Yard of Kuznechnoy", "silvery morning. Old Saratov "," February. Saratov roof.
Cycle landscapes this year, written by Eugene Bocharov in the steppe Trans-Volga River Big Uzen, marked by new qualities that arise as the most motivated, and technique. The colors in these sheets, executed in gouache, become louder, brighter, denser, and their combinations - more contrasting, strokes - short, expressive.
True landscape artist, but poetry is a quiet life items for him as attractive. As in the types of landscape, still life in Eugene Bocharov important - the desire for harmony of the world of things surrounding us, the world, sometimes, fleeting, passing. In these sheets a branch of fresh lilac, bright red poppies, faded roses, compared with an elegant white porcelain or shiny silver pitcher. Sometimes things and seemed to freeze in the shape of the ambiguity, vagueness silhouettes shimmer of colors.
Contemporary art is replete with the extremes of postmodern currents, and the artist, perhaps, one must have a certain boldness and confidence in the chosen path, in approving the realistic basis of his work. Works of Eugene Bocharova - heartfelt, poetic, well-executed - a worthy continuation of the traditions of classical Russian art.
