Title: Oil painting On a walk in the city Oleksiy Ivanyuk Description: No.AAA5583The Oil painting Canvas titled “On a walk in the city” radiates vibrancy, energy, and the lively pulse of urban life, captured through bold, expressive brushstrokes and a dazzling spectrum of colors. It is a scene where the natural and the architectural, the peaceful and the dynamic, intersect harmoniously. The artist does not aim to depict the city in a conventional or literal way but rather to immerse the viewer into the sensations and moods of a walk through its streets, where every element seems alive and full of motion. At the heart of the composition, a line of buildings rises in the background, painted in luminous whites and creams, but streaked with glowing reds, purples, and oranges. These structures appear less like rigid constructions and more like luminous forms vibrating with energy under a dramatic sky. They serve as a reminder of human presence and history, their textured facades reflecting the memory and endurance of the city. Above them, the sky bursts with swirling purples and fiery scarlets, as if the atmosphere itself is charged with intensity, amplifying the sense of being in a place where life never stands still. Descending from this architectural horizon, the middle of the painting is filled with a dense canopy of trees and greenery, painted in expressive strokes of deep blues, emerald greens, and splashes of violet. These trees act as a living shield between the quietude of nature and the bustling rhythm of urbanity. Their thick, almost abstract shapes seem to sway, echoing the rhythm of footsteps, conversations, and the passing of time. The artist’s choice to intertwine unexpected colors within the greenery – purples, yellows, and even traces of crimson – imbues the natural setting with dynamism, refusing to let it remain static or decorative. It is alive, just as much as the people who move through it. The foreground brings the human element into focus with particular charm. Two figures on bicycles, rendered in quick yet deliberate strokes, ride along a winding path that cuts through the greenery. Their bodies lean forward in motion, painted in bright accents of red, blue, and white, ensuring they catch the viewer’s eye amidst the vibrant chaos of the landscape. These figures embody the theme of walking—or moving—through the city, turning the painting into more than a static scene. They are the protagonists of a narrative of leisure, freedom, and the simple joys of urban exploration.*** ABOUT THIS PAINTING **** TITLE: "On a walk in the city"* 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.
