Title: Oil painting On the edge of the forest Alex Kalenyuk Description: №Kalen 1330"On the Edge of the Forest" is a vibrant oil painting, a feast for the eyes with its rich, impasto textures and a riot of color that celebrates the natural world. The composition is a dynamic juxtaposition of the untamed forest edge against a brilliant sky. The canvas is alive with the motion of the palette knife, which has carved out an almost tactile experience for the viewer. The trees of the forest are a tapestry of purples, blues, and earthy tones, interwoven with flashes of brighter hues that suggest the interplay of light and shadow within the woods. The trees seem to sway and dance, their leaves and branches a wild choreography set against the serene backdrop of the sky. Above the forest, the sky is a wash of pale greens and blues, with cloud-like forms that appear both fluffy and weightless. These dreamy shapes provide a soft contrast to the dense and textured foliage below, suggesting the expanse of the heavens reaching outwards in all directions. The foreground of the painting is a celebration of the meadow at the forest’s fringe, where the colors transition to warmer golds and yellows. This area is dotted with strokes of green, indicating grasses and plants that thrive in the open sunlight, a natural contrast to the sheltered growth of the forest. "On the Edge of the Forest" encapsulates a moment of nature’s harmony, where the boundary between the wild woods and the open land is both a meeting and a blending of environments. The painting offers the viewer a glimpse into a world alive with color and movement, a snapshot of nature’s endless variety and beauty.*** ABOUT THIS PAINTING **** TITLE: "On the edge of the forest"* ARTISTS: Alex Kalenyuk* SIZE: 25x30 cm/'9.84x11.81 inches' * MEDIUM: oil, canvas* HAND PAINTED: Original painting from our collection* CONDITION: Photos provide accurate information about the product.About the artist: Born March 13, 1954, in the city of Piryatin, Poltava region.
