He lived and worked in Yalta .. At the heart of creativity is the beauty of the south, old streets, places that are dear to the artist from childhood.
Singer of the Crimea, an optimist whose life purpose was painting and communication. He expressed all the power of love for the Crimean land, for the Southern coast of Crimea in his canvases. Painting was not his profession, it was his essence. Invented by him, was invented by nature itself. Karelin is really a bright personality and a great artist ..
He was a true gourmet of painting.
