Title: Oil painting Village evening garden Oleksiy Ivanyuk Description: No.AAA5834The Oil painting Canvas titled "Village evening garden" depicts a deeply atmospheric and intimate moment from rural life, captured through bold strokes and a palette of vivid, contrasting colors. At the heart of the composition lies the figure of a villager, clad in a bright red shirt and blue skirt, tending to the lush green rows of a garden as the day descends into evening. The artist conveys not just an image of a garden but the essence of a way of life, where the rhythms of nature and human labor intertwine harmoniously. The lower half of the canvas is dominated by a dense tapestry of greens, rendered in thick impasto. These strokes suggest thriving rows of cabbages or similar leafy vegetables, their cool tones highlighted by flecks of lighter turquoise and emerald. This abundance of plant life symbolizes both the sustenance of the village and the deep connection between the people and the land. The earth beneath appears rich and fertile, hinted at through undertones of warm browns, oranges, and muted reds that peek through the dense foliage. At the center of this vibrant growth, the solitary figure bends over, fully immersed in the work of the garden. The person’s posture, with their back slightly curved and arms extended toward the plants, conveys dedication, patience, and the timeless continuity of rural labor. The bright red clothing stands out sharply against the darker greens and blues, turning the figure into a focal point of the composition. This contrast not only draws the viewer’s gaze but also suggests the resilience and vitality of the human spirit against the vastness of nature. Behind the garden, the scene transitions into the architectural elements of village life. Traditional thatched-roof houses, painted in darker tones of browns, violets, and muted grays, emerge against a sky bathed in gold and amber hues. These structures anchor the composition, their weathered forms embodying the endurance of generations. Their simplicity contrasts with the richness of the garden, emphasizing the balance between modest living and the natural abundance surrounding the village.*** ABOUT THIS PAINTING **** TITLE: "Village evening 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.
