Artist Iliya Mirochnik paints illustrator Charlie Robinson at James Yarosh Associates Gallery

During the "Summer Night - 2014" gallery opening and artist meet & greet, Iliya Mirochnik painted Charlie Robinson as he sketched from his model seat for an evening of art creation within the setting of a fine art gallery to inspire. Says Yarosh, "It was a perfect function for the loft space gallery. My tastes for gallery events has been to create smaller more intimate scenarios than larger grand events - I think they become more meaningful to connect."

"Mirochnik's gift is that his artist's antennae are international, yet he is armed with the Repin Institute's academic training," says Yarosh. "He shares stories in paint that go beyond their origins. His work is of our time and gives a sense of the shared experience. Seeing his exquisite painting and sensitivity to the beauty and poetry in our lives evokes hope." - James Yarosh
