Title: Oil painting The mountains touch the sea Yuriy Suprunchuk Description: №AAA4283The painting "The Mountains Touch the Sea" beautifully captures the meeting of land and water, where towering hills descend into the vast embrace of the ocean. The composition presents a dramatic yet tranquil scene, where nature's elements blend seamlessly in a harmonious display of color and movement. The foreground is dominated by the reflective waters of the shoreline, where waves gently lap against the sand. The artist masterfully employs a variety of brushstrokes, from broad, sweeping gestures to delicate touches, to create the illusion of wet sand shimmering under the diffused light. The golden-brown hues of the earth contrast against the cool blues of the water, lending depth and dimension to the scene. The reflections of the cliffs and sky ripple across the surface, adding a sense of fluidity and transience. Two solitary figures stand near a small wooden boat, their presence evoking a quiet moment of contemplation. Their silhouettes, dark against the reflective water, suggest they are either preparing for a journey or have just returned from the sea. The positioning of the figures and the slight tilt of the boat convey a sense of movement, as if time is momentarily paused between the rhythmic tides. Above, seagulls glide effortlessly through the vast expanse of sky, their wings catching the light as they soar. Their presence adds a dynamic element to the otherwise still landscape, reinforcing the connection between earth, sea, and sky. The sky itself is a masterful blend of stormy grays and soft blues, with hints of lavender and golden light breaking through the clouds. This interplay of colors suggests an atmosphere on the cusp of change—perhaps the aftermath of a storm, or the gentle transition between day and evening. The cliffs rise boldly on the left, their rugged surfaces painted in earthy ochres and deep greens. Layers of sediment and vegetation are skillfully depicted with expressive brushstrokes, giving the landscape a sense of age and permanence. The top of the hill features a small figure, possibly a lone observer gazing out towards the horizon, reinforcing the theme of solitude and introspection. The painting exudes a timeless quality, drawing the viewer into its serene yet powerful embrace. It is a place of reflection, a point where the vastness of the sea meets the unyielding land, and where human figures appear small yet significant within the grand tapestry of nature.*** ABOUT THIS PAINTING **** TITLE: "The mountains touch the sea"* ARTISTS: Yuriy Suprunchuk* 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 artist: Zhitomir artist Suprunchuk Yuri Sergeevich Born on April 11, 1961, in the city of Zhitomir.
