Belarusian State Academy of Arts, faculty of Design and Decorative and Applied Arts graduate Vasili Zianko is working in so called "enviromental romanticism" style. Reaching out to Art Nouveau heritage, formed in the early XX century,  is one of stylistic features of his art.
Personal technique is based on painting with acryl on canvas with use of different textures, thinnest glazing, but most importantly - volumetric outlines. Pieces uniquiness is based on ornamental "curliness" of natural shapes of plants and wildlife in combination with slight  asymmetry. Artist's works resemble dancing, wavy arabesques, pierced by organic energy and herbal life force.
