Bibliography Biography, although Evgeny Charushin lived a not very long life, the biography of an outstanding artist is a rare example of a creator who managed not to change the vocation, safely survive the wars and fluctuations in the party course.

The work of the animalist experienced the creator, and the descendants of Evgeny Ivanovich continue the glorious dynasty. Childhood and youth in November in the family of the chief architect of the Vyatka province Ivan Charushin took place a joyful event - the long -awaited son of Eugene was born. After 6 years, the spouses Ivan Apollonovich and Lyubov Aleksandrovna acquired another heir - Vladimir, but Zhenya remained a family ball, whose hobbies and pranks were touched by both parents and older girls - Katya's half -sister and pupil of Zina.

Evgeny Charushin in childhood with his father and brother's childhood of the future animalist was secured and happy. The boy grew up in an atmosphere of love, creativity and labor. The position of the father, who built in Vyatka and the surroundings from above the buildings of a secular and civilian nature, made it possible to live in a spacious house filled with books and atlases, cells with singing birds and aquariums with fish, contain hunting dogs and horses.

Zhenya’s mother, in her youth, a skilled rider, after an injury focused on raising children and caring for a garden and a greenhouse. Family legends about the spiritual and physical development of the boy in harmony with nature have been preserved. So, he learned to swim, a binding of a river with a herd of cows and holding on to their tails, and the pronunciation of the sound “P” defeated the raven.

To draw for Zhenya was as natural as breathing, talking and naughty. In the photo made in childhood and adolescence, the young man looks positive and serious, but was actually a big prankster. Evgeny Charushin in his youth at the age of 6, Eugene was sent to the Vyatka commercial school, famous for art education. The educational institution has long endured the leprosy of the future artist, even the organization of the “blowing of the stove” got away - not only the charm and abilities of young Charushin were taken into account, but also the fact that his father erected a new building of the school.

But after Eugene painted the genitals to the angels in the textbook under the Law of God, the free -thought was transferred to a less prestigious Vyatka gymnasium, where he met and made friends with Yuri Vasnetsov, a distant relative of the author of Alenushki and Three heroes. Teenagers went hunting together, engaged in gymnastics and created the literary and artistic group "Sopocud".

Yuri Vasnetsov, Vladimir Lebedev and Evgeny Charushin, after graduating from a secondary school, by that time already bearing the name of Turgenev and called a labor school, Evgeny Charushin went to serve in the political department of the 3rd Army of the Eastern Front, where skills were very useful in drawing and design.

The artist and writer almost never resorted to touching anthropomorphism - the image of the world of animals similar to the world of people, and, therefore, comprehended for two -legged ones. In each living creature, Charushin saw a mystery, and the mystery of the animal’s life was perfectly conveyed by the lack of contour pattern - drawing with “spots” and “strokes”, a kind of animalistic impressionism.
