Boris paints his works in the traditions of Palekh School using tempera paints and acryl. He is also interested in wall painting. His favorite themes to depict are historical subjects, genre scenes, folklore and fairy-tales.
Working on a lacquered miniature Boris always tries to convey people positive emotions through his work. He prefers to use in painting cold tones such as blue, green and ochre.
Boris applies in painting his personal techniques of art. He thinks his works are notable for thinness of painting, coloring, decorative design and peculiar execution.
Painting of I.I. Golikov, P.D. Bazhenov, I.P. Vakurov, A.I. Kuingi, Korovin S.A. and I.I. Levitan had a great influence on the Artist creativity.
