Title: Oil painting On a village street Oleksiy Ivanyuk Description: No.AAA5571The Oil painting Canvas titled “On a village street” captures the charm, warmth, and authenticity of rural life, offering a vivid scene that reflects both tradition and the timeless rhythm of human connection with the land. The artist uses thick, expressive impasto strokes to bring vibrancy, texture, and an almost tactile quality to the composition, allowing the viewer to feel as though they are stepping directly into this rustic environment. The focal point of the painting is the cluster of houses with their sloping roofs, rendered in earthy hues of ochre, terracotta, and burnt sienna. The architecture is simple yet full of character, with walls that glow under the filtered light of the day, as if the houses themselves embody the accumulated warmth of countless summers. The roofs are painted in deep, rich tones, and their uneven lines suggest the weight of history, of generations that have lived under them. The golden-yellow walls of the central house radiate a sense of coziness, contrasted against the darker purples and blues of the background, emphasizing the home as a source of shelter and comfort. Above, the sky is streaked with swirling shades of turquoise, lavender, and muted gray, a dramatic canvas in itself that hints at the changing weather, a reminder of nature’s ever-present influence on village life. The clouds stretch across the horizon in thick, layered forms, as if mirroring the textured earth below. The interplay of vibrant blues against softer grays creates a dynamic atmosphere that feels alive, transitional, and filled with possibilities. The foreground is where life animates the composition most directly. Rich strokes of yellow, green, and brown depict the fields, bursting with energy, as though the soil itself is imbued with vitality. Here, two small figures stand out—a woman in a red garment, accompanied by another in darker tones—engaged in conversation or work. Their presence, though small in scale, is monumental in meaning. They embody the life of the village: communal, grounded, and deeply tied to the cycles of labor, harvest, and shared experience. These figures become symbols of resilience, tradition, and continuity, their bright garments punctuating the earthy palette of the landscape.*** ABOUT THIS PAINTING **** TITLE: "On a village street"* ARTIST: Oleksiy Ivanyuk* SIZE: 15x20 cm/5.90x7.87 inches'* MEDIUM: oil, canvas* HAND PAINTED: Original painting from our collection* CONDITION: we tried to convey the maximum information with the help of photos about this product About the artist: Born March 13, 1954, in the city of Piryatin, Poltava region.
