Title: Oil painting Towards the wind Yuriy Suprunchuk Description: №AAA4211The oil painting "Towards the Wind" captures the spirit of adventure and the serene beauty of sailing. The composition features a magnificent sailboat gliding across the water, its golden sails billowing under the force of the wind. The artist masterfully conveys the movement of the boat, the dynamic play of light and shadow, and the reflective nature of the water, creating an atmosphere filled with energy, yet deeply peaceful. At the heart of the painting, the dominant sailboat stands proud, its mast reaching towards the vast sky. The sails, painted in warm golden and ochre tones, appear to glow under the sunlight, contrasting beautifully against the brilliant blue sky. The slightly rough and expressive brushstrokes give a sense of texture to the fabric, making it seem as though the wind is actively pushing the vessel forward. The boat itself is depicted in deep, earthy hues, grounding the composition and providing a striking contrast to the vibrant surroundings. The water, a mesmerizing shade of turquoise and deep blue, reflects the sky and the boat’s golden sails, creating a stunning mirror effect. The reflections ripple and shimmer with gentle distortions, enhancing the sense of movement. The artist's delicate handling of color transitions between blues, yellows, and oranges in the water adds depth and realism, making the viewer almost feel the gentle rocking of the waves. The background features a series of distant sailboats scattered across the horizon, each with crisp white sails that subtly blend into the sky. This not only adds a sense of scale but also conveys the feeling of a regatta or a lively sailing expedition. In the far distance, hazy mountains stretch across the horizon, their muted purples and blues contrasting with the vibrancy of the foreground. This background creates depth, giving the viewer a sense of vastness and limitless possibilities. Above, the sky is painted in a luminous shade of azure, with soft, billowing clouds drifting across. The artist’s loose yet deliberate brushwork brings the clouds to life, making them feel weightless and in constant motion. The sky, in combination with the wind-filled sails, reinforces the painting’s theme of movement and freedom. This artwork resonates with anyone who has ever dreamed of setting sail and heading towards the unknown, letting the wind guide them. It stands as a metaphor for life's journey, where the winds of change and possibility propel us forward into new experiences and uncharted waters.*** ABOUT THIS PAINTING **** TITLE: "Towards the wind"* ARTISTS: Yuriy Suprunchuk* SIZE: 40x30 cm/'15.74x11.81 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.
