This is one of my recent works done in my favorite mixed media technique. I've used textured toilet paper for the rocks and acrylics for other obejcts here. This place is a Shantar Islands where I had been about 35 years ago.

> **`Shantar Islands`**: The islands are currently uninhabited but were known to the mainland Gilyak tribes for their fishing grounds.
> The first recorded exploration of the Shantar Islands was in April 1640, when Russian explorer Ivan Moskvitin allegedly sailed to the mouth of the Amur River with a group of Cossacks and spotted the Shantar Islands on the way back. Moskvitin reported his discoveries to Prince Shcherbatov, the Muscovite voivode in Tomsk. Based on Ivan Moskvitin's account, the first Russian map of the Far East was drawn in March 1642. The Shantar Islands were also explored by Russian surveyors between 1711 and 1725.
