Review:

"Kaprielov, born in 1977, was a child prodigy, studying drawing in Leningrad from the age of five. He 
supported himself in various artistic trades, in Russia and Venice, before arriving in London via the Cote d'Azur and Avignon. "

This made me think our Latvian friend had been made up by Jamie Shovlin and I found it hard to think 
about his paintings.

He seems real though:

Though his hair looks old for someone of barely 30. 

If he does exist I quite like his paintings.
