Vasily Andreyevich Ponikarov (Russian: Василий Андреевич Поникаров) was a Soviet and Ukrainian artist of the second half of the twentieth and early twenty-first centuries. He is known as a painter, graphic artist and watercolorist, master of landscape and still life.
Vasily Ponikarov used the technique of "wet" watercolor, applying paints on pre-moistened paper, which gave his works a special softness. The artist worked exclusively with watercolor, not using other techniques. His landscapes often depicted Odessa and its surroundings, and still lifes were distinguished by bright colors and depiction of abundant natural gifts of the south of Ukraine. The master's individual style brought him wide recognition and success.
