Loving painting


Our heroes are painter Artur Hovhannisyan and miniaturist Lusine Matevosyan. The hero of Artur, who prefers realistic style and creates mainly large-scale canvases, is man, his feelings, emotions and lifestyle. However, Lusine fully enjoys detailed work on a small area for months. She prefers medieval art.
Her work as a duplicator-miniaturist in Matenadaran allows her getting into daily contact with the rich treasury of Armenian miniatures. What unites our two heroes with different preferences in trends and working styles is the huge love for painting.
