Title: Watercolor painting Morning over the river Boris Serdyuk Description: NoSERB 1212The Watercolor painting on Cardboard titled "Morning over the River" captures a poetic moment of serenity and quiet reverence, set at the edge of a tranquil waterway at dawn. The composition is bathed in delicate hues of early morning light, where the first rays of the sun gently awaken the landscape, casting a warm, almost sacred glow across the scene. At the heart of the painting stands a small church with a golden dome, subtly nestled amidst dense foliage. Its presence is both spiritual and architectural, acting as a quiet sentinel to the sleeping landscape. The sky above is a breathtaking blend of lavender, rose, and soft peach-colors that suggest the waning moments of twilight giving way to daybreak. Wisps of violet clouds drift across the sky, creating a sense of depth and movement that contrasts with the stillness of the water below. This interplay of color and form evokes the fleeting magic of early morning light, a time when the world is still hushed and contemplative. The church, with its pale blue walls and radiant golden dome, stands as the focal point of the painting. It is rendered with soft but deliberate brushstrokes, allowing it to emerge gently from the surrounding trees. The golden dome glows against the cooler tones of the foliage and sky, symbolizing spiritual illumination and quiet majesty. This sacred structure is not merely a building but a symbol of peace, grounding the viewer in a sense of cultural and spiritual heritage. Surrounding the church, the trees are painted in rich greens and deep blues, with occasional bursts of lighter foliage that catch the morning light. The artist skillfully balances dense, shadowed areas with illuminated patches, capturing the dance between darkness and dawn. These trees create a protective enclave around the church, amplifying the sense of seclusion and sanctuary. The river below mirrors the sky and trees with remarkable delicacy. The water's surface reflects the warm pinks, purples, and blues from above, creating a dreamlike continuity between sky and earth. Gentle ripples and hints of aquatic vegetation add texture to the river, while subtle highlights suggest the slow, meditative flow of water. The reflections are slightly blurred, emphasizing the softness and calm of the moment. This blurred mirror effect gives the viewer the impression that time is suspended-that the river and sky are engaged in a silent conversation.*** ABOUT THIS PAINTING **** TITLE: "Morning over the river" * ARTISTS: Boris Serdyuk* SIZE: 19.7x28.3 cm/'7.75x11.14 inches' * MEDIUM: watercolor, oil, cardboard* 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.
