Title: Oil painting Country garden Oleksiy Ivanyuk Description: No.AAA5791The Oil painting Canvas titled "Country garden" is a vivid celebration of rural life, bringing to the viewer a strikingly colorful and emotional depiction of villagers tending their land. The painting radiates warmth and vitality, capturing not just a simple scene of labor in the countryside but the spirit of community, tradition, and the unbreakable bond between people and the soil that sustains them. Through bold brushstrokes and an impasto technique, the artist conveys not only the visual richness of the garden but also the texture, rhythm, and pulse of rural existence. At the heart of the canvas, two figures are engaged in the timeless task of cultivating the garden. Their bodies are slightly bent as they tend to rows of cabbage plants, rendered with thick, swirling strokes of green, turquoise, and white. The earthy tones of red, brown, and violet beneath the vegetables add depth, reminding the viewer of the richness of the soil and the cyclical nature of life. These cabbages dominate the foreground, painted with an almost sculptural quality that makes them tangible, as though their cool leaves could be touched. The women themselves are depicted with simple, strong gestures rather than detailed features, yet their presence is commanding. One wears a red skirt, the other a blue one, and their headscarves, painted in lighter shades, stand out against the deeper tones of the soil. Their contrasting colors make them focal points amidst the lush vegetation, symbolic of resilience and dedication. Their labor, though quiet, feels monumental in the way the artist frames it—an eternal dialogue between human hands and the earth. Behind the figures rises a row of rustic cottages with sloping roofs in shades of violet, brown, and blue. These homes, built with thick strokes of color, suggest shelter, history, and belonging. Smoke from chimneys hints at life inside, while the proximity of the houses to the garden underlines the intimate connection between daily sustenance and domestic life. The cottages form a backdrop that grounds the painting in a specific cultural and geographic setting, evoking the familiarity and comfort of the village.*** ABOUT THIS PAINTING **** TITLE: "Country garden"* 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.
