Title: Oil painting Moonlit night in the village Oksana Kalenyuk Description: NoAAA4011This oil painting cardboard, titled "Moonlit night in the village", the artist uses an impasto technique, applying thick layers of oil paint to create a richly textured surface that enhances the depth and atmosphere of the scene. The result is a painting filled with mood and emotion, inviting the viewer to experience the stillness of the night. At the heart of the composition, a village emerges from the shadows, nestled among dark trees that form a natural barrier between the foreground and background. The buildings are depicted with expressive strokes, their forms only partially defined, blending seamlessly into the surrounding night. Among them, a church with a glowing white facade and a shining dome stands out, becoming the focal point of The painting. Above the village, the sky is painted in deep earthy tones, reflecting the darkness of the night while maintaining warmth and softness. A pale greenish moon shines overhead, partially veiled by textured clouds that move subtly across the sky. The moon's placement and the artist's use of contrast create a delicate luminosity, casting a faint glow over the entire scene. This interplay between darkness and light enhances The painting's dreamlike quality, making the viewer feel as if they have stepped into a moment frozen in time. The foreground features a vast expanse of land painted in cool shades of lavender, blue, and earthy brown, suggesting fields or meadows under the moon's muted light. The textured brushstrokes give the impression of rough terrain, possibly covered in frost or dampened by the cool night air. The soft transitions of color and shadow evoke a sense of depth and distance, leading the eye naturally toward the village in the background. The trees that frame the village are painted in deep greens and blacks, their forms blending into the night sky. The heavy, textured application of paint gives them a sculptural presence, emphasizing their role as guardians of the peaceful village. The contrast between the dense foliage and the lighter, glowing buildings adds to The painting's sense of balance and composition. Despite the darkness, there is a profound sense of warmth and tranquility in this scene. The painting captures the essence of rural life at night-where silence reigns, and the world seems to slow down. The contrast between the cool, muted tones of the landscape and the warm glow of the village creates a visual harmony that is both soothing and captivating..
