Surrealist, Vladimir Kush, Featured on The Wrighter

Sept. 4, 2012 - PRLog -- Russian born artist, Vladimir Kush, answers both bizarre and basic questions and is the latest contemporary artists featured on The Wrighter.  The blog recently wrapped up its three month tribute to Munch’s iconic, “The Scream” and is now focusing on the summer of artists; what they’ve done and created.  Kush is The Wrighter’s first interview for the project.

When asked about the earliest picture he could remember painting or drawing, Kush responded, “My career as an artist began when I was a child of 3 or 4. My father was a scientist, but everyone on his side of my family used to draw all the time. I remember how in the long winter evenings I used to sit on my father's lap finishing his drawings: boy running on skis,an old man walking by with the cane ...”

According to the biography on his website, after serving in the military and graduating from the Institute of Fine Arts, Kush painted portraits on Arbat Street to support his family during the hard times in Russia.  In 2001, Kush opened his first gallery in Lahaina, Hawaii, and since, has opened three more (two in Las Vegas and one in Laguna Beach).
