Title: Watercolor painting Snowy morning light Boris Serdyuk Description: NoSERB 1201The Watercolor painting on Paper titled "Snowy morning light" captures a serene moment by a quiet riverbank, where two boats rest gently on the snow-covered shore, beneath the soft light of a wintry sky. The composition is filled with calm and a subdued energy, reflecting the quiet pause that nature takes during winter - a time when everything slows down, waiting patiently under the cold sky. The scene unfolds at the edge of a river or lake, its waters painted in deep, reflective shades of blue, violet, and indigo. The surface appears still but not frozen, hinting at gentle movement beneath the calm. The artist's brushstrokes convey fluidity and depth, using subtle transitions in tone to create an almost meditative effect. This body of water acts as both a visual anchor and a symbolic mirror, reflecting not just the light and the trees, but also the tranquility of the moment. On the snowy riverbank lie two small wooden boats. Covered lightly in snow, they appear untouched for days, as if waiting for a spring that hasn't yet arrived. Their dark hulls contrast sharply with the surrounding snow, emphasizing their solitude and stillness. The boats suggest human presence - or rather, its absence - and evoke a quiet longing, a sense of memory and anticipation. They might belong to a fisherman or traveler, now retreating into warmth and rest, while the boats remain behind in quiet vigil. The background is a blur of soft colors and forms - misty trees and frosty vegetation rendered in a palette of warm ochres, soft violets, and gentle blues. The foliage is painted with a light hand, allowing the background to dissolve into an atmospheric haze, as if the forest itself is exhaling a sigh of winter. The trees on the left lean gently toward the center, their bare branches painted with elegant strokes, offering a sense of shelter and protection to the scene below. The snowy sky above, though not overwhelming in the composition, is a key emotional component. Painted in a luminous wash of soft blue and gray tones, it envelops the entire scene in a gentle stillness. It is not threatening or heavy with snow; rather, it hangs quietly above, a silent witness to the world below. There is no storm, no drama - only the softness of winter light filtering through the trees and resting upon the water.*** ABOUT THIS PAINTING **** TITLE: "Snowy morning light" * ARTISTS: Boris Serdyuk* SIZE: 20x27.7 cm/'7.87x10.90 inches' * MEDIUM: watercolor, paper* HAND PAINTED: Original painting from our collection* CONDITION: we tried to convey the maximum information with the help of photos about this productAbout the artists: Serdyuk Boris Petrovich was born on June 30, 1960 in the city of Konotop Sumy region.
