Title: Oil painting Sunny day by the river Oksana Kalenyuk Description: NoAAA4748The oil painting on cardboard titled "Sunny Day by the River" captures a tranquil moment of rural life, where nature and human presence blend harmoniously. The scene is painted with thick, expressive brushstrokes, creating a textured and dynamic composition that brings the landscape to life. At the heart of the painting, a lone figure sits in a small red boat, gently paddling across the calm river. The person, dressed in light-colored clothing and wearing a straw hat, exudes a sense of peaceful solitude. The positioning of the figure suggests a leisurely ride, as if they are taking a break from daily routines to enjoy the beauty of nature. The red boat stands out vividly against the darker tones of the water, drawing the viewer's eye and anchoring the composition. The river, depicted with deep blues, purples, and hints of green, reflects the surrounding foliage and sky. The artist uses bold, swirling strokes to create movement in the water, capturing the way light dances on its surface. There is a sense of gentle ripples, as if the boat's passage disturbs the stillness only slightly, preserving the serenity of the moment. On the riverbank, lush greenery spreads across the canvas, painted in an array of greens, yellows, and blues. The vegetation is thick and abundant, reinforcing the idea of an untouched, natural landscape. The artist employs both bright and dark shades to create depth, making the grassy fields appear rich and full of life. The brushstrokes are thick and dynamic, adding texture and a sense of movement, as if a light breeze is rustling through the leaves. Tall trees dominate the background, their branches reaching toward the sky. The foliage is painted in a blend of greens, blues, and browns, with thick, layered strokes that give the trees a sculptural quality. The trees provide a natural frame for the composition, drawing attention to the boat and its occupant while also creating a sense of enclosure and intimacy. In the distance, small houses with red rooftops peek through the foliage, adding a human element to the otherwise wild landscape. Above, the sky is a mesmerizing blend of blues, whites, and soft purples. The clouds are rendered with sweeping, curved strokes, giving them a sense of movement and fluidity. The interplay of light and shadow in the sky suggests a bright, warm day, where the sun's rays filter through the clouds, casting a soft glow over the entire scene.*** ABOUT THIS PAINTING **** TITLE: "Sunny day by the river"* ARTISTS: Oksana Kalenyuk* SIZE: 15x20 cm/'5.90x7.87 inches'* MEDIUM: oil, cardboard* HAND PAINTED: Original painting from our collection* CONDITION: Photos provide accurate information about the product.About the artists: Kalenyuk Oksana was born in 1964 in Rivne region.
