"Hello, my friend. I am Konstantin Bokov, an artist who came from Russia to New York City 35 years ago and have been living here ever since. I love this city and its people and I will be posting stories, thoughts, and pictures on the web for you to enjoy with the help of my son. If you are a gallery owner who has a collection of my works, please contact us and we will gladly link you from this site." --KB

Jesus
Jesus is a frequent guest in Konstantin's paintings. Not certain where this sighting was, but the wall in the background looks like the one around the Kremlin. Konstantin is not much of a church-goer, but he identifies with Jesus' asceticism. To him, art and nature are daily miracles and a direct link to the spiritual.
