Title: Oil painting Moonlit Night in the Field Alex Kalenyuk Description: NoAAA4040This oil painting cardboard, titled "Moonlit Night in the Field", the artist employs thick, textured brushstrokes to bring depth and movement to the composition, using a rich and expressive color palette that enhances the nocturnal atmosphere.At the center of the painting stands a large haystack, its form sculpted from bold strokes of green, yellow, and earthy tones. The haystack, illuminated by an unseen light source, appears to glow against the dark background, serving as the focal point of the composition. The layering of colors and the impasto technique give it a sense of volume and presence, making it stand out against the surrounding landscape.Above the scene, the night sky is painted in deep shades of blue, punctuated by a luminous crescent moon that casts a faint, silvery glow over the field. The artist's use of color here is particularly striking, as the moonlit hues blend seamlessly with the darker tones of the sky, creating a dreamlike effect. Tiny specks of lighter paint suggest the presence of distant stars, adding to the sense of vastness and tranquility.The foreground and lower portion of the painting are dominated by cool purples and blues, with accents of red and orange interspersed throughout. These colors create an impression of shadows cast across the ground, possibly over a snowy or frost-covered field. The bold contrasts between warm and cool tones heighten the sense of depth and atmosphere, making the landscape feel both mysterious and inviting.In the background, dark silhouettes of trees and distant structures emerge faintly against the night sky, their forms blurred and softened by the deep blue shadows. These elements contribute to the overall mood of solitude and stillness, reinforcing the paintings evocative nighttime setting.The artists expressive use of color and texture elevates this simple rural scene into something almost ethereal. The interplay of warm and cool hues, combined with the thick application of paint, creates a sense of movement even in this tranquil nighttime setting. The painting conveys not just the appearance of the landscape but also the feeling of being in the quiet countryside under a vast, moonlit sky.*** ABOUT THIS PAINTING **** TITLE: "Moonlit Night in the Field"* ARTISTS: Alex Kalenyuk* SIZE: 20x15 cm/'7.87x5.90 inches' * MEDIUM: oil, cardboard* HAND PAINTED: Original painting from our collection* CONDITION: Photos provide accurate information about the product.About the artist: Born March 13, 1954, in the city of Piryatin, Poltava region.
