The infinitely talented artist and designer, Alexander Bobkin-B”el’ (Xandr Bobkeen Biell), was born in 1978, in the marvelous and ancient capital of Estonia, Tallinn. Though most of his life, he lived and worked in Riga, Latvia, another Baltic state.
Masterpieces of such personalities as Salvador Dali, Maurice Cornelius Escher, Rene Magritte, Gustav Klimt, Paul Klee and Joan Miro produced a certain impact onto Alexander’s inner world, vision and creativity. In his works you will feel tangible traces of modern digital devices and computer design influence: the thoroughness of detail will sometimes make you doubt that the artist worked exclusively with oil paints.
Alexander’s creativity lived two lives. One was dominated by canvas and oil, the other by a computer mouse and a screen. Both of them followed his main principle: the Act of Perfection. If any work was not ideal, it could not be considered completed. The artist’s attitude towards both his pieces of art and people who surrounded him was truly inspiring.
Alexander was one of those people who have something more than talent. He had a strong willpower and a heart of gold he used to create wonders. He was one in a thousand who could inspire and attract people to the alluring world of art.
Nothing could better describe an artist than his masterwork.
