MAUI Honolua Bay
MAUI Honolua Bay from miron kiriliv on Vimeo.
From my recent trip to Maui, I filmed a short movie at the Honolua Bay on Maui, Hawaii. There was plenty of coral reef and many colorful fish feeding. On my last day, I went for a swim and I saw a shark cruising in the bay, it was the first time I run into a shark in the wild pacific. The music is by Tycho (Dive)

Blossom One
Once a year I do a painting of rather a larger scale. This is my last work that represents 2011, is called "Blossom One", it concludes yet unfinished series on paintings on a theme of one. I got inspired taking a walk on the promenade in Uzhgorod, Ukraine where my father lives and it was the moment of truth full of blossom, rebirth and new beginning. Since it's Thanksgiving, I am very Thankful to walk this Earth, breath it's air and wake up every morning doing exciting stuff, and of course I love my family. Happy Thanksgiving!
Painting is oil on canvas 50 x 50'

Amphitheater in Arles
First thing I do when I land in Europe is to get a shot of espresso, have a quick bite of fresh baguette and maybe a glass of red wine if it's after midday. Europe is a playground, a place full of memories from the past yet a place unknown. I lived in Europe until 20 and have lots of memories associated with this continent. Some come from growing up there, some from art books, lectures, good conversations, books, poetry, family, plan-airs, art seminars or some random fun experience. I feel at home here! My last trip was to France was dedicated to my favorite artists that lived and created here, I wanted to be in their skin, walk their land and see theirs mountains, coasts, experience what they were inspired by and created their art. Even though the times have changed, there was a sense of flow in nature that resembled images from Cezanne's canvases, Van Gogh's vivid brushstrokes, Matisse's vast color plains or Picasso's distorted reality.
Arles was associated in my mind with Vincent Van Gogh, he lived here in Yellow House and Paul Gauguin visited him here. I also remembered the Roman Amphitheater, one of the biggest and oldest in Europe dating back to the Roman Empire. It brings a lot of character to this old town and yet it's still used for bull fights occasionally.
