About this ebook
Igor Samsonov: Painter and Passionate Visionary showcases the work of Igor Samsonov, one of the most accomplished of a new wave of Russian artists. Referring to his art as total art, Samsonov aims to produce artistic creations rather than mere paintings. Total art consists of more than just the exquisite figures and vibrant colors the reader will see on the canvases displayed in this book. Each frame encompasses a painting, a story, and sometimes even imaginary music all at once.
This book not only presents the reader with beautiful paintings, which speak for themselves, but it also tells the stories behind them and explores the symbolism within. This journal of Igor Samsonov's artistic achievements to date was written in collaboration with the artist himself, who believes that each story and painting continues to mature in the same way that a person ages.
In the end it is up to each reader to enjoy his own story and painting, whether together or separately.

About the author
David Salomon is a businessman, photographer, penguin enthusiast, and part-time writer from Dallas, Texas. The author of Penguin-Pedia and Who Needs a Government, Salomon switches topics yet again as he ventures into the world of Igor Samsonov's "total art."
One of Salomon's passions is to visit art museums all over the world. Being a nature photographer, he has three things in mind when standing in front of a painting: color, composition, and movement. In Samsonov he found a rare artist who is a master of all three of these elements and much more. The first thing Salomon saw in Samsonov's paintings was the artist's use of vibrant colors, but he soon also noticed his skillful attention to detail and the symbolism in each painting. Salomon wanted to shine an additional light on Samsonov's works by displaying each painting along with its respective story.
