Title: Oil painting City orange sunset Boris Serdyuk Description: NoSERB 1165 The Oil painting on canvas titled "City Orange Sunset" captures the fleeting, luminous beauty of an urban evening as the day dissolves into twilight. Executed in a vivid impasto technique, the textured surface comes alive with color, form, and atmosphere. Each palette knife stroke enhances the emotion of the scene, emphasizing the glowing sky, the silhouettes of city buildings, and the deep reflections on a water surface that anchors the composition. This painting offers a poetic balance between nature's light and the man-made geometry of the modern cityscape. In the foreground, a wide expanse of water, likely a river or canal, stretches horizontally across the canvas. Painted in deep, rich shades of ultramarine, cobalt, and indigo, the water reflects the glowing hues of the sky above. The painter has expertly suggested ripples and movement using thick, directional strokes that capture both the reflective surface and its gentle distortion of light. A warm patch of orange-pink in the water hints at the setting sun's last flare, connecting sky and surface in a harmonious echo. The buildings lining the water are rendered with broad strokes of bold and saturated color. On the left side, an older house with arched windows and a steep blue roof stands proudly. Its facade is touched with warm yellows, violets, and reds - a reflection of the sunset's intensity and the inner lights already flickering on as the city transitions into night. Climbing greenery softens its outline, suggesting a quiet blend of nature and architecture. To the right, modern high-rises tower in contrasting shades of cool purples and blues, their blocky forms painted with energetic confidence. The tension between old and new, warm and cool, is resolved through the unifying glow of the sunset. Between these buildings, in the distance, rises the silhouette of a spired cathedral, painted in glowing reds and pale oranges, creating a sacred focal point that subtly pulls the viewer's eye into the horizon. The sky is the heart of The painting - a vibrant mosaic of colors that seem to pulse with heat and emotion. The artist layers soft lavender, rose, coral, and fiery orange with sweeping, sculptural texture. The clouds are not flat or soft, but rich and alive, carved with the knife in thick relief, emphasizing the physical presence of the atmosphere. This sky feels as if it could be touched - its warmth and motion almost tangible.
