Serge Ignatenko Born in 1975 Ignatenko is an emerging contemporary painter. Nevertheless, he looked with respect to the old classical masters throughout his artistic career, such as Velasquez, Raphael and Michelangelo, and drew inspiration from their technique and patterns.

At the Beaux-Arts, he was selected as the best student and Ignatenko was invited to continue his studies at the prestigious Academy of Art.

Serge Ignatenko became a very famous portrait painter, and his bold figurative works, mostly life-size and often full-length, endure today for their striking poses and compositions, evocative lighting, and brave application of paint.

Ignatenko artworks are part of collections in USA, UK, Japan, Estonia, France, Germany, Denmark, Israel, Spain, Netherlands, Lithuania, Norway and in Canda.
