Title: Oil painting Country day near the well Oksana Ivanyuk Description: No.AAA5644The Oil painting Canvas titled “Country day near the well” captures a moment of rustic simplicity and timelessness, where everyday rural life becomes infused with color, vitality, and meaning. Through the artist’s bold strokes, textured impasto, and expressive palette, the scene is transformed into a vivid tapestry of nature, architecture, and human presence. The painting does not merely depict a countryside view but invites the viewer into the rhythms of a pastoral day, where life revolves around the essentials of home, land, and water. At the heart of the composition stands a modest white cottage with a green roof, placed against a backdrop of towering trees and expansive sky. The cottage, painted with thick, creamy whites and touches of shadow, symbolizes stability and domestic life. Its green roof echoes the surrounding natural palette, blending human presence with the earth itself. Near the cottage, a figure dressed in bright red tones draws immediate attention—likely a villager engaged in daily tasks by the well. The red stands out against the greenery, embodying the warmth of human activity amid the calmness of the countryside. The well, partially visible in the foreground, becomes both a literal and symbolic center of the scene. Painted in earthy browns and greys, it serves as a gathering place, a source of sustenance, and a reminder of the intimate connection between human life and the land. Its presence conveys an enduring narrative of tradition, where water is drawn not merely for survival but as part of a shared rural heritage. The positioning of the figure by the well adds a sense of continuity, as though countless generations have repeated the same gesture in the same place. Surrounding the cottage is a vibrant patchwork of fields and grass, depicted with luminous yellows, greens, and touches of violet. The thick application of paint in this area creates a tactile sense of earth, brimming with fertility and warmth. The foreground is crisscrossed by rustic fencing, drawn with rough, uneven strokes that suggest both the passage of time and the humble craftsmanship of village life. These fences, painted in warm browns and accented with hints of red and blue, provide a visual anchor, guiding the viewer’s gaze toward the cottage and the figure.*** ABOUT THIS PAINTING **** TITLE: "Country day near the well"* ARTIST: Oksana Ivanyuk* SIZE: 20x15 cm/7.87x5.90 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.
