Title: Oil painting Autumn poplars Boris Serdyuk Description: №AAA5309 The oil painting on Cardboard titled "Autumn Poplars" vividly captures the fiery soul of fall through an expressive palette and bold impasto technique. This striking landscape brings to life a row of towering poplar trees ablaze with the warm, saturated tones of the autumn season, their leaves glowing in vivid reds, burnt oranges, and golden ambers. Each tree rises like a column of flame against a dramatic sky, commanding attention and evoking a sense of energy, motion, and transformation. The artist’s use of palette knife is immediately apparent, creating thick, textured layers of paint that lend the work a tactile, almost sculptural quality. The trees are not depicted with delicate detail but with confident, swirling strokes that suggest the rustling movement of leaves in a crisp breeze. Their forms are alive with tension and rhythm, rising vertically and dancing against the vast sky behind them. Light from the setting sun bathes their trunks and crowns, giving them a molten glow that contrasts beautifully with the cool tones of the environment. Above the trees, the sky unfolds in a medley of purples, blues, and pale yellows. The clouds are painted with sweeping, dynamic gestures, mirroring the restlessness of the season. They stretch across the composition like ribbons, creating depth and atmosphere, and hinting at the waning light of early evening. The sun itself is not visible, but its presence is felt in the illumination of the sky and the blazing trees, a symbolic farewell to summer's warmth. The lower portion of The painting shifts into cooler hues—grassy greens and violet shadows fill the foreground and the road that cuts across the landscape. This road, rendered in firm, angular strokes, serves not just as a compositional anchor but also as a symbolic passageway: the transition from one season to the next, from vibrancy to quietude. On the left side, a small car is subtly integrated into the scenery, a nod to modern life that contrasts with the timeless grandeur of nature. There is a palpable sense of motion in the scene, though everything stands still. The heavy impasto and gestural marks evoke rustling leaves, distant winds, and the unseen passage of time. The poplars, though rooted, appear to sway and flicker like flames. Their fiery crowns seem to burn with the knowledge of the moment's fleeting beauty.
