Kostya's birthday. August 2025, Cyprus

Kostya's birthday. August 2025, Cyprus Kostya's birthday is on August 13th, and since the beginning of the month, we have had problems that I should probably describe to myself. It all started with the news that Kostya's mother would be flying to Cyprus to congratulate him. Both Kostya and his mother cannot stand us, and despite the fact that we help Sylvia's family with everything, we have not become family to them. Having learned about Olya's arrival, Sylvia called me and said that she was ready to pay for us to go somewhere so that we would not stay in Limassol. This outraged me; I still thought that we were a family after all. I told her that we were ready to leave, but only directly to Ukraine. She calmed down at this point, and we left the conversation on this topic. I wanted to see how everything would happen. I did not tell her that they were going to celebrate Kostya's 45th birthday on a yacht. And Sylvia prepared a surprise for Kostya, invited Felix Sc...

As it turned out, I didn’t mention in my stories that I received a cherished message from the Saatchi Gallery that my Elephants Walking Pushkinskaya were being sold! The news is very pleasant and very disturbing. It’s disturbing because the painting is in Ukraine, and I’m very worried about how everything will work out with its shipment to the USA.

It’s very, very nice because they help us survive in a foreign country, and also inspire the creation of new works!

August, 2025 We all live by the news. There is nothing more important than waking up in the morning to check what is happening in our long-suffering Ukraine. It becomes calm if there is no information about the next martyrs flying to our city. So, the day was successful. I imagine thousands of Ukrainians who came to the sea, because despite the fact that there is a war in the country, our children should have the pleasure of swimming and sunbathing. And in Cyprus, as always, it is hot. On one of the hottest days, when the island became like a hot frying pan, a terrible fire broke out, destroying several villages and taking the lives of a married couple. They burned alive in a car. And I have to fight with cats. Not so much fighting, but reaping the fruits of their life. It is disgusting. But as it turned out, in our yard I was responsible for the cats. And now we can turn to her for all our questions. And it’s been three years. The only thing that pleases me is that the inspiration has...
