Title: Oil painting Field chamomile Oksana Ivanyuk

Description: Kalen 1620

The oil painting on Canvas titled "Field Chamomile" is a luminous celebration of simplicity, nature, and the quiet poetry of rural life. The composition centers around a voluminous bouquet of wild chamomile flowers arranged in a rustic earthenware vase and set atop a modest, slightly rumpled table draped in a white cloth. The entire scene breathes with a sense of freshness, tranquility, and sun-dappled nostalgia. The artist employs a soft, impressionistic palette to bring the bouquet to life. The chamomile flowers, with their delicate white petals and golden yellow centers, appear to overflow from the vase in every direction, creating a cascading, cloud-like effect. The brushstrokes are loose and spontaneous, yet carefully placed to preserve the identity of each bloom. The use of impasto gives the flowers a tangible texture—each blossom seems to hover just above the canvas, as though caught in a soft summer breeze. Around the central bouquet, hints of soft blues, purples, and greens mix harmoniously with the creamy whites and ochres. These subtle background tones echo the atmosphere of a quiet countryside interior, where time seems to stand still. The backdrop—a faded, pale wall—serves as a gentle counterpoint to the vibrant energy of the bouquet. There is a worn elegance in the textures, with rough brushwork capturing the rustic charm of the interior space. To the right of the canvas, a window or shelf is suggested with swift vertical strokes of green and teal, adding depth and architectural context. On this surface rest a few scattered fruits—perhaps apples or tomatoes—painted with thick dabs of rich red and warm yellow. These objects add a pop of color and further ground the domestic scene in everyday life. The tablecloth, rendered in subdued whites and blues with hints of lavender and earthy shadows, anchors the scene. Its folds are suggested with loose brushstrokes that convey both weight and softness. The cloth subtly reflects the colors around it, capturing ambient light and reinforcing the dreamlike atmosphere of the painting.
