  1. Голованов Леонид известен как плакатный художник в марках это чувствуется. Хороший яркий стиль плакатов. особое внимание прорисовка лиц (выделяет именно лицо. эмоции) .

    Информации очень мало в интернете
    Да, в России мало еще работают с интернетом. О художниках. граверах голые факты. (стандартная биография людей . В СССР писалась при приеме на работу). Все по-прежнему ищется на мести проживания или работы людей. Сам пробовал надо перевернуть горы каталогов общаться в обществе с художникам или коллегами по работе .
    Спасибо за Ваш труд.
    С уважением. Раис

    1. Hello... Thank you for your comment... I always like to have your comments on the post about Russian Designers... I also have updated the post about Vasili Zavyalov (it was very incomplete, it was one of my first pots, and now I updated it into the first of many posts about this Artist...)..
      Thank again for all your help.. next month I finally will buy a Russian catalog (in Russian and english), so the work will be much more accurate...

      Regards
