Title: Acrylic painting Mountain river Mykhailo Patskan Description: NoAAA4925The acrylic painting on cardboard titled "Mountain River" is a vivid celebration of nature's raw energy and the serene yet powerful rhythm of flowing water through rugged terrain. The composition is rich in contrasts-both in color and emotion-offering a harmonious blend of movement and stillness, warmth and coolness, wildness and peace. With expressive brushstrokes and a striking use of color, the artist immerses the viewer into a vibrant autumnal landscape where a fast-flowing river carves its way through a forested mountain valley. The river dominates the foreground, rendered with dynamic, sweeping strokes of white, turquoise, and indigo that evoke the churning motion of water as it dances over rocks and glides around bends. The brushwork is loose and energetic, mimicking the river's constant, restless flow. Flecks of white capture the shimmer of light on the water's surface, suggesting the clarity and freshness of a highland stream. The surrounding rocks, painted in deep browns and purples, add weight and texture, anchoring the composition with a sense of geological permanence that contrasts beautifully with the river's fluid impermanence. Flanking both sides of the river are dense clusters of trees, ablaze in the fiery palette of autumn. Shades of burnt orange, crimson, ochre, and mossy green dominate the forested slopes, creating a canopy that glows with warmth and life. The painter's layering technique and bold color placement give the foliage a sense of volume and movement, as if the leaves themselves are rustling in a crisp mountain breeze. These trees not only frame the river, guiding the viewer's gaze toward the center of the composition, but also serve to reinforce the contrast between the liveliness of the season and the tranquil constancy of nature's cycles. As the river winds into the middle ground, it narrows and fades slightly in intensity, inviting the viewer to follow its journey toward the distant peaks. The eye is drawn into the depth of the composition, where the vibrant trees recede into cooler shades of green and the blue-grey silhouettes of distant mountains begin to emerge. The color transition suggests atmospheric perspective, subtly conveying the vastness of the landscape and the crisp clarity of mountain air.*** ABOUT THIS PAINTING **** TITLE: "Mountain river"* ARTISTS: Mykhailo Patskan* SIZE: 20x30 cm/'7.87x11.81 inches' * MEDIUM: acrylic, cardboard* HAND PAINTED: Original painting from our collection* CONDITION: Photos provide accurate information about the product.About the artists: Mykhailo Stepanovych Patskan Born on January 18, 1961 in the city of Khust.
