Title: Oil painting On a long river journey Yuriy Suprunchuk Description: NoAAA4995The oil painting on cardboard titled "On a long river journey" captures the serene beauty and quiet adventure of life along a wide, winding river. With rich, expressive brushstrokes and a nuanced palette of blues, greens, and earthy tones, the artist transports the viewer to a tranquil riverside moment - one filled with calm reflections, drifting boats, and the promise of distant shores. The scene is centered around a wooden boat gently tethered to a weathered dock. The vessel, humble and practical in its construction, carries a few simple belongings - a red cloth, a pair of oars, perhaps provisions for the journey ahead. It floats in shallow waters close to the bank, where aquatic plants dance in the currents and reflect the warm brown tones of the lakebed below. The dock, slightly askew and partially sunken at its far end, hints at the passage of time and the many travelers who may have used it before setting off downstream. The water itself is rendered with particular sensitivity. Its surface reflects both the moody sky above and the verdant life along the banks. Hints of emerald green and deep teal blend into soft turquoise highlights, suggesting depth and movement. A circular ripple in the center of the river suggests a disturbance - perhaps a bird diving or a fish rising - reinforcing the sense that nature here is both present and active, though never intrusive. Beyond the dock, the river stretches into the distance, drawing the viewer's gaze toward a vanishing point that disappears into the misty horizon. The left bank is marked by a low hill crowned with a few red-roofed buildings nestled among trees - perhaps a village or homestead. The red provides a visual counterpoint to the greens and blues, subtly grounding the scene and evoking human presence without dominating the natural setting. On the right, a denser grove of trees stretches along the shoreline, their foliage deep and shadowed, touched with golden undertones. The brushwork here is looser, more impressionistic, capturing the interplay of light through branches and the abstract beauty of forest texture. The trees arc gently over the water, contributing to the painting's sense of enclosure and intimacy.*** ABOUT THIS PAINTING **** TITLE: "On a long river journey"* ARTISTS: Yuriy Suprunchuk* SIZE: 30x40 cm/'11.81x15.74 inches'* MEDIUM: oil, cardboard* HAND PAINTED: Original painting from our collection* CONDITION: Photos provide accurate information about the product.About the artist: Zhitomir artist Suprunchuk Yuri Sergeevich Born on April 11, 1961, in the city of Zhitomir.
