Title: Oil painting Quiet village courtyard Oksana Ivanyuk Description: No.AAA5845The Oil painting Canvas titled "Quiet village courtyard" captures the tranquil charm of rural life, where the pace of existence slows, and the beauty of simplicity takes center stage. At first glance, the viewer is drawn to the house, which dominates the composition with its warm red roof and sturdy, whitewashed walls that exude timelessness. The structure feels inviting, its small windows glowing with a touch of golden warmth, suggesting life within, while outside, the world unfolds in serene silence. The use of impasto brushstrokes adds depth and texture, giving the impression of the roughness of the walls, the unevenness of the roof tiles, and the solid permanence of a building that has withstood years of changing seasons. In the foreground lies a small well with its wooden roof, an element that immediately places the scene in a traditional, rustic setting. Its modest presence, painted in earthy browns and cool shadows, anchors the scene with an intimate connection to daily life, where every drop of water once drawn contributed to the rhythm of the household. This detail enriches the painting with a sense of lived history, connecting viewers to generations who relied on such courtyards for sustenance and quiet reflection. The courtyard itself is alive with the rich textures and tones of nature. Bold strokes of green dominate the space, reflecting the lushness of grass and the vibrancy of life that thrives under the open sky. Golden highlights suggest patches of sunlight breaking through the canopy of trees that tower behind the house, bathing the scene in warmth and evoking the gentle embrace of a late summer afternoon. Shadows, created with deep blues and purples, intermingle with lighter tones, giving the ground a sense of undulating movement, as though the land itself breathes softly in the stillness of the day. The trees surrounding the home rise tall and protective, their foliage rendered in rich greens, browns, and flashes of orange. They create a natural frame that shelters the dwelling and hints at the eternal cycles of growth and renewal. The painter’s heavy, expressive brushstrokes breathe energy into the leaves and branches, contrasting with the stillness of the house and courtyard, suggesting that even in quiet moments, nature remains alive and vibrant.*** ABOUT THIS PAINTING **** TITLE: "Quiet village courtyard"* 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.
