Artist thinks that every artist should make his work painstakingly and put his heart and soul into a miniature so as not to be ashamed of his artworks.
Before beginning to paint a new miniature he carefully studies all materials that will help him to express a chosen theme entirely. Considers his work to be finished when he likes a miniature and it is approved by the Artistic Council.
Boris uses in painting the tones that can help him to express a chosen theme.
The artist supposes that every artist paints his works in his own style and as regards his works he thinks that they are notable for peculiar painting technique.
Painting of Golikov I.I. and his relatives Myznikov G.M (B.I. Kamardin’s uncle) and Malakhov N.V. (B.I. Kamardin’s father-in-law) had a great influence on the artist’s creative work.
Boris is fond of tourism and cars.
