The first thing that immediately draws visitors attention is self-portraits of the artist (three portraits), painted at different periods of time. The first picture is painted in 1975, in the portrait you can see a creative young man with impetuous desire to discover, who believes that life is infinite, and all that is conceived will definitely come true. The second one is the 1983 year painting; in the portrait there is a self sustained man with his vision of values in art. A self-portrait painted in 1995 of Charymurad Sariyev is the man whom we all know - a discreet and wise. He has truly established himself as an artist and found what he had been looking for.
The creativity of the artist’s life is approximately divided into the periods of search and discovery. A graduator of the Tashkent Art Institute, Charymurad Sariyev almost never left his pencil, and notebook he used to paint portraits of the foremost people in agriculture, teachers, oil workers and simply acquaintances.
A bit later from careful hachure of pencil changed to watercolor, thereupon, portraits became expressive highlighting hero’s inner world and temper. All seemed to be resulted that Charymurad Sariyev continued his successful carrier as a portraitist. Here is a good example; the two pictures are adornment of the exhibition. One is the portrait "Gelin", which is about Turkmen bride, the image depicted the process of glancing at you. At first sight, she strikes the viewer not only with her beauty, but also with her inner purity. Her face depicts tenderness, letting viewer to admire it over and over.
The portraitist’s talent is a gift of artistic interpretation of a painter with his rich and contradictory inner world. Under another portrait there is inscription “The sage”. The picture depicts a gray-bearded man in a turban painted volumetrically, and realistically that without knowing the name of the picture the viewer can understand that it is about the sage.
There are not only portraits of countrymen, but also pictures of historical subjects represented in the display. Early passion for archeology and ongoing visits of Ashgabat Art School students in the open air in Margush Kunyaurgench, Nisa for Charymurad Sariyev was bound to have an effect. In monuments of antiquity, the boy very carefully looked at surviving fragments of the mosaic murals had made by medieval masters visioning on how they would look like if time had preserved it. Thereupon, this passion affected on revolutionary change in the artist's carrier. He was professionally involved in mosaic. Friends and colleagues dissuaded him to follow this carrier as the work of Charymurad showed outstanding talent as a portraitist. However, the artist has been steadfast in his decision, and soon on the walls of the Art Campus of the capital appeared the first three pictures of Charymurada Sariyev in co-authorship with other artists.
Panels of Charymurat Sariyev look like carpet canvas. He deliberately uses the carpet ornament representing images of jewelry, characters from the animal and plant world. Everything he does is deeply traditional and original with stylistic of eastern décor.
Monumental art has another important advantage. Everyone has access to it – notes Charymurad Saryevich. – You don’t have to go to the museum or the artist's studio; these works are living besides us delighting passers-by with its beauty.
Today, mosaics panel of Charymurat Sariyev adorn buildings of Mary Museum of Regional Studies, Mary and Dashoguz regional libraries. The most interesting work is wall painting, which has become a landmark of the Cultural Center of Galkinish district of Lebap region. The exhibition represents the scale models of common view and its fragments of mural paintings. Scenes from life of villagers are made by the artist in decorative-poster genre using chiaroscuro effect from the contrast of purple, blue and white colors. Looking at these works, without exaggeration one can say that the world around us has become more expressive and bright thanks to the artist Charymuradu Sariyeva.
