The Art of Leonid Afremov
I tried different techniques during my career, but I especially fell in love with painting with oil and palette-knife. Every artwork is the result of long painting process; every canvas is born during the creative search; every painting is full of my inner world. Each of my paintings brings different mood, colors and emotions. I love to express the beauty, harmony and spirit of this world in my paintings. My heart is completely open to art. Thus, I enjoy creating inspired and beautiful paintings from the bottom of my soul. Each of my artworks reflects my feelings, sensitivity, passion, and the music from my soul. True art is alive and inspired by humanity. I believe that art helps us to be free from aggression and depression.
Currently my art is being collected all over the world. There are many pleased collectors in USA, Israel, Italy, France, England, Spain, Norvay, Canada, Australia, New Zealand and other countries. Presently it is just enough to type my name in an internet search engine to discover the value and magnificence of my Art.

Did you hear about the guy who’s saying Afremov isn’t real? Do a search about it, he posted all over the Web last week on complaint boards! Some people are a little crazy or want to give the artist a bad name which is just plain tupid. Obviously Afremov is real! Just look at all the videos he has of himself painting. Loving your Afremov info. Thanks!

actually.. there is some shadiness going on with Afremov. I have witnessed it firsthand. I was going to do an affiliate program and sell some of his pieces through my website, but the more involved I got, the more discrepancies kept showing up. I ended up not selling his work because there are issues. I can guarantee more “issues” are going to surface from different clients in the weeks/months to come. The only solace in this is that in the future his art might increase in value for its notoriousness / shadiness/ infamousness as well as its merits.

I just bought a painting from Afremov off Etsy and recieved a painting that was OBVIOUSLY a reproduction and not the painting that was listed as “original”. This guy might have been the real deal a long time ago. But, he’s not now. Something shady is going on. Buyer beware! Plus, all the rebuttals I’ve seen praising this man have had serious grammar and spelling errors. Which indicates to me that the same person is writing them.
