I've studied and understand linear perspective.
I believe that in order to have true mastery in art, you need to understand the fundamentals of linear perspective. Even though I used a photograph for this painting, I made sure to adjust and correct the perspective in it.
The reason why all of the lines don't align perfectly is because
of how the painting image was taken and also how it's a bit cropped, but I guarantee that they align much better in reality.
I used golden ratio in this piece, as a symbolic element to the proto-science of alchemy, which symbolizes the holy grail process of alchemy, of transforming lead to gold, which all of the alchemists were aiming to achieve.

Eugene has been exhibiting since 2006. In 2008, Eugene traveled for a study abroad trip to Paris, France to study the old masters from life at the Louvre. He was very much inspired by the Rubens room there as well as the two Michelangelo sculptures; Dying Slave and Rebellious Slave. Another piece that left an impression on Eugene was Theodore Gerricault’s The Raft of the Medusa. In October 2017, Eugene Kuperman traveled to Italy to study the great Italian Renaissance and Baroque masters.
He’s witnessed the greatest works by Michelangelo first hand, such as Statue of David, St.Peter’s Pieta, Sistine Chapel, Tomb of Pope Julius II, Doni Tondo, Pieta Palestrina, the unfinished Slave sculptures, Dome of St.Peter’s Basilica and more. Michelangelo serves as his greatest inspiration for his incredible sense of design and composition. In September 2019, Eugene went back to Italy for further individual studies.
He experienced first hand the Medici Tombs designed by Michelangelo as well as many other invaluable Italian works of art which gave Eugene further understanding of art as well as inspiration. Since late 2014, early 2015, Eugene took a new direction in art. He took upon himself to create works of social commentary which to any extent educate, enlighten, and promote a positive change in society. Eugene Kuperman has been published in various art books, magazines, and newspapers.

Interview With Eugene Kuperman
TNYO: Hello Eugene, Once again thank you for your wonderful work. I created the New York Optimist to inspire, educate and entertain
our readers, followers and fans. We are able to do this by working closely with special talented people like yourself.
My first question is where are you from originally and where do you reside now?
Eugene Kuperman: Hello dear John, very nice to talk to you and I'm honored to be featured on the New York Optimist. I was originally born in Kharkiv, Ukraine, I'm also Jewish, so I'm Ukrainian Jewish ethnically. I however consider myself to be an American. I love this country and I wouldn't want to live anywhere else. Right now I live in Los Angeles, CA. My family immigrated from Ukraine in 1994 when I was 7 years old. I have been a United States citizen for most of my life. Unfortunately, the city of Kharkiv, in which I was born, I believe is now a ruins due to the war that's ongoing currently.
TNYO: I usually try to stay away from categories, but if you were to be asked what style of work you paint in what would it be?
Eugene Kuperman: I would have to say that I aim to paint and work in the spirit of the old masters of the Dutch Golden Age of the Baroque, most specifically, my favorite painter is Rembrandt van Rijn, so he is whom I try to emulate in my painting technique. In terms of subject matter, I do various topics, some of which are social commentary on the themes that are important to me, which I believe need to be brought to light, to hopefully bring awareness as well as educate people, in order so in some way, I hope to make the world a better, more positive place, even if my work only benefits one viewer, I feel like I've done my job.
TNYO: have you been painting and drawing since childhood?
Eugene Kuperman: When I was living in Kharkiv, Ukraine, as a child there was very little to do. I could either watch tv, go play outside as well as ride my bicycle or draw. So I mainly did these things. I started drawing at about 3 years old. Then when my family immigrated to United States, I started painting right away, when I was 7 and a half years old.
TNYO: When choosing your subject matter can you tell us a little bit about your process?
Eugene Kuperman: I feel like inspiration can come from anywhere. Inspiration for me usually comes from life experiences, because I feel like in order to make something truly genuine, with integrity, the artist needs to live through this aspect as well as really understand it with some kind of an experience. With this being said, my inspiration is unlimited. Sometimes I can get inspired from conversations I've had with friends, other times it could be on relevant topics which I believe are important to portray, such as my genocide themed paintings or the painting which conveys detriment of life through narcotics, as well as others I've made. Sometimes I just get visions, either when I'm working out, sitting somewhere, or doing something and they come to me, inside my mind, like a scene or a film, inside of my imagination. Sometimes I get dreams of the things that I paint later on. Other times, I see scenes outside where I'm walking and I take photos, which I can later, develop into paintings. I don't have a single way of choosing a subject matter, I just need to feel free to do what I feel I should and what feels right to me. This is also why my work is so eclectic. I don't like to explore the same subject many times, because I find that not only to be boring, but once for me is usually more than enough, because I'm just too creative by nature. I have way too many creative ideas in line and I'll be lucky if in my life I'll be able to technically execute 40% of them.
TNYO: Your painting The Alchemist is Mindblowing, the attention to detail is staggering - being a Abstract Expressionist and Immpressionist I not only have great appreciation for the work but I also have a number of questions. First Alchemy is the magical practice of transformation or creation. In the painting the viewer sees a cook at work in a commercial atmosphere / restaurant, diner, Did you see the cook as an alchemist - can you share your thoughts on this painting?
Eugene Kuperman: Thank you so much! Yes, I believe that every human in the world, is doing some kind of alchemy in their everyday life, without maybe even realizing it. Something as simple as making a cup of coffee in the morning, I consider to be alchemy, because of raw materials being transformed into something of enjoyable value. I think that, the process of living requires constant transformation in the things we do, so we are all alchemists by default. Also in a sense of humans constantly transforming through the journey of life as I wrote in my description of this painting, "We are all born on this planet as lead, with the aim to transform ourselves into gold, during this life’s journey".
We all should appreciate the simple things in life, that most of us take for granted, because sometimes these simple things, are miracles in themselves. I also very much admire all of the blue collar workers and Starbucks baristas that have served me coffee through out the years, I appreciate every single one of them and have even made many friends of whom work at Starbucks. During the Covid pandemic, when I was on lockdown, it was a difficult time for most if not everyone, the one thing that was the highlight of my day was getting my cappuccino at Starbucks. It was a spiritual experience that I knew before, but even then, realizing how important of the work these baristas are doing. They not only made and gave delicious drinks to the people coming there, but they gave continued hope to many of these people, including myself, that made me as well as many others live through the pandemic and to continue staying positive. To me, these people are real heroes that most people take for granted. It's the baristas, store clerks, custodians, or any people of service that keep the society afloat. In Buddhism there's a concept that love is all around us and can be presented in various ways. The notion that agreed upon rules in society such as currency having value for everyone, or rules of conduct that most people follow are all expressions of love on a broader scale. With this being said, what these Starbucks baristas do, I receive as genuine expression of love, because the drinks that they make, always bring me joy as well as positive energy.

TNYO: Did your environment from childhood up until the present day have an influence on your work?
Eugene Kuperman: It's a funny thing that you mentioned my childhood having an influence on my work, because in fact my childhood is the reason why I became an artist. The way it started is when I was about 2 or 3 years old, my father in Ukraine, called me up to his book shelf and took out a book. What he showed me astonished me and made an imprint inside of my mind.
He opened up a page and showed me a grayscale photograph of the replica of Michelangelo's Statue of David. I believe this was a photograph of the replica in the Pushkin museum in Russia. When I saw that, I was not only overwhelmed but also confused. So I asked my father a few questions of which were, "Why is this man completely naked and why is he all white?" My father responded to me, "This isn't a man, this is a sculpture of a man, carved out of a stone called marble, around 500 yeas ago, by an artist named Michelangelo
." This absolutely astonished me, but he said afterwards, completely blew my mind. He then said, "This statue is actually taller than our ceilings." I believe when I heard this, my eyes were wide open with astonishment and I was left speechless. We had tall ceilings in our Ukraine apartment, but this is also considering how small I was that everything to me seemed giant, however, The David is far taller than the ceilings we had in Ukraine, so at that point, I couldn't even imagine, what it took, to create a sculpture that beautiful and big, by carving stone.
I was completely blown away and lost in admiration by what my father showed me. Fast forward to 2017, when I visited Italy for the first time in my life and saw the original Statue of David by Michelangelo, at the Academia museum in Florence, I was left speechless. Sometimes when you witness something so great, the only reaction you can have, is to just be quiet and take it in as much as you can. To be in the presence of such greatness as Michelangelo's masterpiece, for me, felt like a privilege. It was a dream come true and I felt a divine aura from his work. For anyone who hasn't seen the original Statue of David, make that your bucket list goal. In my opinion, it's the greatest work of art, of all time and also the reason why I became an artist.
TNYO: Eugene what is your favorite color?
Eugene Kuperman: It's hard to say what my favorite color is, probably turquoise blue because of how serene it appears. However, I approach color in a bit of a different way, being an artist, I see all colors as valid in relation to each other. For me, colors are tools and I utilize them in the way, my works demands them to be used. So my relationship to colors is more professional.
TNYO: I wonder what your take is on Ecommerce and the sale of art in general Nationally and Globally whether directly sold by the artist or through a gallery?
Eugene Kuperman: I think that, what ever works for the artist is all good. I don't really think of currency value when I start my works, it never even crosses my mind. What I think about, is the idea that's important to me, that I aim to express, everything else to me is irrelevant at the time of me working.
TNYO: You mentioned that the Alchemist was one of your masterpieces but I forgot the phrase you used. Can you tell us the definition of this wonderful Painting and your next steps?
Eugene Kuperman: The Alchemist was an idea that I aimed to express, but in reality, it was a pre-requisite for my next major piece, which will take me roughly 5-8 years if not longer to create. It will be my magnum opus, if that's the term that you are referring to. What magnum opus is, is a single greatest work of art in the artist's life. For instance, for Leonardo da Vinci, it was The Mona Lisa or The Last Supper, for Michelangelo he had several as well, such as The David or he's more known for his Sistine Chapel Frescoes. For Rembrandt, his magnum opus would be The Night Watch. You get the point.
I cannot though, disclose any details about my magnum opus, simply because I have previously had many, even professional artists, steal my ideas, so this is why I don't even post work in progress shots on my paintings anymore. It'll only be revealed once it's finished, other than that, I cannot further discuss this project.
TNYO: If you were not an Artist what would you be?
Eugene Kuperman: I thought about this, I'm not sure if I would be anything else. Before, I considered that maybe I would be a classical music composer, such as J.S. Bach, Ludwig van Beethoven, Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky or Frédéric Chopin, because I love classical music and in general, I consider music in itself to be the highest as well as the most universal expression of creativity, because mostly everyone (except for hearing impaired), have their favorite music, while other forms of art, not everyone is into. However, with this being said, I believe that I was destined or fated to be an artist in this life, so I think it wasn't as much of a rational choice, rather than my destiny.
TNYO: Is music important to you? Do you work while listening to music, and if so can you pick a favorite song that you may listen to while you are working?
Eugene Kuperman: I cannot live a single day without listening to music, I'm obsessed with music. I love all genres of music, as long as they are good, such as trance, hip hop, rock of all kinds, from classic rock to alternative, or anything else.
I also love classical music, really just anything that has merit. Some of my favorite artists are Incubus, Red Hot Chili Peppers, Lana Del Rey, 2Pac, The Doors, ATB, Van Halen (Only with David Lee Roth, I don't mess with anything else in terms of Van Halen), Frank Sinatra and many others. I feel like, if I listed all of the music artists that I like, this entire interview would be mostly about my favorite music artists, so I'll just stop here. Thank you so much for the interview, it was my pleasure, I hope who ever reads it, gains something valuable from it.
Sincerely,
Eugene Kuperman
