Title: Oil painting Morning sound of bells Oksana Ivanyuk Description: No.AAA5643The Oil painting Canvas titled “Morning sound of bells” conveys a moment of spiritual serenity and cultural depth, where architecture, nature, and human life converge into a harmonious whole. With a vivid palette and expressive impasto technique, the artist captures not merely the physical presence of a church and its surroundings, but the atmosphere that accompanies the tolling of morning bells—a sound that awakens the village, binds the community, and symbolizes continuity between past and present. At the center of the composition rises a church, its golden dome gleaming with luminous strokes of ochre, yellow, and subtle green. The dome becomes a radiant focal point, embodying the spiritual essence of the scene and symbolizing enlightenment and divine presence. The brushwork is bold and sculptural, the thick layers of paint giving the dome and architectural forms a tactile richness, as if their sacred weight resonates beyond the canvas. The rooflines of neighboring houses extend outward in warm terracotta and earthy reds, grounding the sacred building within the fabric of the village. The surrounding trees, painted with vigorous swirls of purple, green, and deep blue, create a vibrant frame around the architecture. Their branches bend and twist with the energy of life, yet they also veil the structures slightly, merging the sacred with the organic. The purple tones dominate this foliage, imbuing the composition with an aura of mystery and reverence, while fiery oranges and yellows scattered throughout suggest the warmth of morning sunlight filtering through the leaves. In the foreground, a cluster of small figures appears among the greenery, depicted with quick yet deliberate touches of red, blue, and earthy hues. Though their forms are simplified, they add an important human dimension to the scene, suggesting villagers gathered in the early hours. Their presence reinforces the theme of community and devotion, as though they are both witnesses and participants in the rhythm of life marked by the morning bells. The figures are placed amidst the interplay of natural colors, their attire contrasting with the surrounding greens, making them stand out as carriers of collective experience.*** ABOUT THIS PAINTING **** TITLE: "Morning sound of bells"* ARTIST: Oksana 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: Ivanyuk Oksana was born in 1964 in Rivne region.
