These works are characterised by openness, sincerity and deep emotional mood, which allows you to see the beauty and grandeur of nature. Kh. Kikimov is a thoughtful, searching artist. He is interested in rhythms and lines in nature, light and colour. He reveals the poetic beauty and majesty of nature.
