Title: Oil painting Clouds over the village Oksana Ivanyuk Description: No.AAA5849The Oil painting Canvas titled "Clouds over the village" is a captivating portrayal of rural life, framed by the grandeur of nature and painted with thick, expressive strokes that seem to vibrate with energy. The composition immediately strikes the viewer with its strong verticals and horizontals, balancing the towering poplar trees against the sprawling fields and clustered village houses beneath. The artist’s impasto technique brings a sense of movement and vitality to every element of the scene, from the restless sky filled with swirling clouds to the lush fields shimmering in green tones. At the heart of the painting, the viewer sees a row of tall, slender poplars rising like guardians of the land. Their upward reach, painted in vigorous strokes of deep green, brown, and golden highlights, directs the eye toward the sky, where an expansive array of clouds rolls across the canvas. The clouds, created with dynamic layers of white, lavender, turquoise, and cream, dominate the atmosphere, almost sculptural in their presence. They give the impression of ceaseless motion, as though the wind is pushing them across the heavens, casting ever-changing shadows over the fields and rooftops below. Nestled at the base of the towering trees lies the village, its red-roofed houses forming a picturesque cluster. The roofs glow in warm hues of crimson and terracotta, providing a striking contrast against the cooler tones of the fields and sky. The houses are painted with simplicity, yet they radiate warmth and belonging, symbolizing the rhythm of life that continues quietly beneath the vast drama of the natural world above. This juxtaposition of human settlement against the enormity of nature is a central theme, highlighting both the fragility and resilience of rural existence. In the foreground, the fields stretch toward the viewer in brilliant tones of green, yellow, and touches of ochre, applied in thick, textural strokes. The earthy palette gives the land a tactile quality, as if one could feel the rough stalks of grass beneath their fingertips. The fields suggest late summer or early autumn, a moment when the earth is both vibrant and heavy with the anticipation of seasonal change. Small hints of water, painted in streaks of blue and green, reflect the lushness of the environment, hinting at irrigation channels or natural streams feeding the land.*** ABOUT THIS PAINTING **** TITLE: "Clouds over the village"* 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.
