VALERY GROMOV — Born in 1964, in Kovrov , Russia, Valery Gromov was the great-grandson of an accomplished artist. Surrounded by the art of his relative, regaled with stories that related the paintings to specific areas of his own childhood experiences, he studied the subjects captured on canvas, learning what inspired his great grandfather.
Valery Gromov loved to investigate the world and events around him, especially when spending summers with his grandfather. Valery compared this huge, unsmiling man with a limp, to the paintings on the walls; scenes of his grandfather as a small boy in shorts, running through fields, playing and sleeping by the river. Drawn to oil and canvas at age twelve Valery started painting. Grandfather's abundant garden inspired his first effort: a blossoming apple tree.
In 1978 Moscow hosted an exhibition of the Premier Collection from the Prado Museum . Valery, age 14, left school unannounced midday , and made the 600-mile train trip in order to see masterpieces by Velasquez, Goya, and El Greco. Never having seen their work, Valery wasn't prepared for the power and beauty conveyed by these artists. He found a bench and sat for a long time completely overwhelmed by the art of the Masters. Sitting there, Valery determined to express himself through painting, hoping to transport people similarly with his art.
