Title: Oil painting Busy city street Oleksiy Ivanyuk Description: No.AAA5856The Oil painting Canvas titled "Busy city street" presents a vivid and dynamic impression of urban life, where colors, textures, and forms combine to capture the rhythm and energy of a bustling street scene. Through bold impasto techniques and expressive brushwork, the artist creates not just a literal depiction of a city street but an atmosphere that feels alive with motion, voices, and human presence. The viewer is drawn into the canvas as though stepping into the very street, surrounded by its noise, warmth, and spontaneity. At first glance, the painting radiates with warmth and vibrancy. The dominant tones are creamy beiges, sandy yellows, and sunlit whites, suggesting that the street is bathed in midday light. These colors, applied in thick strokes, give the impression of sun reflecting off stone facades, pavement, and rooftops, evoking a Mediterranean or southern European atmosphere. The brightness of the architecture contrasts with deeper accents of purples, blues, and reds, balancing the heat of the palette with cooler, grounding shades. The composition reveals an intimate view of a narrow street framed by houses on both sides. Their facades, painted with textured strokes, are alive with patches of shadow and sunlight, their windows simple yet expressive in their dark recesses. The uneven application of paint on the walls mimics the aged and weathered look of stone or plaster, lending authenticity and charm to the setting. The structures themselves, though static, pulse with life through the painter’s vigorous handling of color. Human figures populate the scene, bringing warmth and storytelling. To the left, a woman in shades of pink and white pushes a stroller, accompanied by a small child. This detail injects domestic tenderness into the urban energy, highlighting the coexistence of the private and public within city life. Further down the street, small groups of people gather, their forms rendered in gestural strokes of red, blue, and ochre. These figures, though impressionistic and abstract, convey movement and interaction—neighbors meeting, conversations unfolding, life continuing in its ordinary yet beautiful rhythm.*** ABOUT THIS PAINTING **** TITLE: "Busy city street"* 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.
