Artist Valery Bulat Elena Pankey

It is a great book about religious art, icons, and cathedral wall decorations. But mostly it is about goals, plans, and the destiny of the talented, famous, well-known Ukrainian artist Valery Bulat, who lived and worked at the difficult time his country was going through. It was a hectic time of danger, when the artist could ask only God about what was right or wrong, what to do, and how to live. At that time, Valery was speaking directly to God when he worked under the dome of the Cathedral, during the creation of his frescoes and icons on the walls.
