Title: Oil painting The road home Oleksiy Ivanyuk Description: No.AAA5806The Oil painting Canvas titled "The road home" immerses the viewer in a pastoral vision filled with warmth, vibrancy, and the comforting familiarity of rural life. The composition unfolds with a sense of intimacy, capturing a simple yet evocative moment: a dirt path winding its way through lush greenery, leading the eye toward a modest house partially hidden by trees. This road becomes more than a literal passage—it is a metaphor for return, belonging, and the timeless rhythm of life in the countryside. The artist uses bold impasto techniques, layering thick strokes of oil paint that create a tactile, almost sculptural surface. The foreground bursts with shades of green—emerald, lime, and golden tones—that dominate the landscape and convey the richness of summer vegetation. Among the grass lies a prominent haystack rendered in earthy ochre and warm brown hues, its rough texture contrasting with the softer strokes of surrounding foliage. This haystack serves as both a central visual anchor and a symbol of harvest, sustenance, and the hardworking spirit of rural existence. The pathway leading toward the house is painted with earthy reds, violets, and browns, blending into the landscape while guiding the viewer’s gaze naturally toward the dwelling. The road, with its uneven and spontaneous brushstrokes, suggests both the literal ruggedness of country paths and the symbolic journey of returning to one’s roots. It is not polished or straight but alive with energy, much like the life of the countryside itself. In the middle ground, a rustic fence painted in warm beige and peach tones stands between the path and the house, adding a sense of enclosure and protection. Its irregular lines enhance the authenticity of the scene, recalling handmade structures built with practicality rather than symmetry. Behind the fence, the house rises modestly, its thatched roof rendered in a mix of beige, sandy, and golden strokes. The walls, touched with whites and muted pinks, catch hints of evening light, creating a sense of warmth and homecoming.*** ABOUT THIS PAINTING **** TITLE: "The road home"* 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.
