Title: Oil painting Boats on the river Yuriy Suprunchuk Description: NoAAA5769The Oil painting Cardboard titled "Boats on the river" captures a tranquil riverside moment where nature and human presence meet in delicate harmony. The central focus of the work is a bright, light-blue boat, anchored peacefully near the bank. Its structure is solid yet softened by the expressive brushwork, which conveys the shimmering effect of light playing across the waters surface. The boats reflection, rippling gently in hues of turquoise, emerald, and muted browns, creates a mesmerizing interplay between solid form and fluid motion. This reflection is further enriched by subtle flashes of red and white, suggesting movement and the constant shifting nature of water. Around this vessel, other boats can be glimpsed, some painted in deep blues and purples, blending into the darker recesses of the scene. Together, they form a quiet cluster, a floating community resting within the embrace of the river. The surrounding environment, dense with trees and foliage, rises like a protective wall behind the moored boats. Shades of green dominate this area, but the artist has infused the vegetation with strokes of lighter tones, yellows, and even hints of purple, evoking the vibrant diversity of leaves and branches under shifting light. The foliage is painted with loose, almost impressionistic strokes, suggesting both the density of the forest and the play of wind rustling through the leaves. Against this deep green background, small, vivid touches of orange, red, and violet emerge, perhaps representing distant houses, docks, or structures barely visible through the trees. These bursts of color inject warmth into the otherwise cool-toned palette, hinting at the presence of life and activity beyond the immediate stillness of the river. Above, the sky is rendered in muted grayish-blue tones, suggesting an overcast or late-afternoon atmosphere. It serves as a calm backdrop that contrasts with the vibrancy of the river below. The subdued quality of the sky enhances the intimacy of the scene, drawing the viewers attention to the reflective surface of the water and the intricate dance of colors captured there. Every ripple, every mirrored fragment of tree, boat, or buoy is carefully suggested with thick, confident brushstrokes. A bright buoy in red, yellow, and blue floats near the main boat, adding a striking focal point of contrast that emphasizes the playfulness of color and light in an otherwise tranquil composition.*** ABOUT THIS PAINTING **** TITLE: "Boats on the river"* ARTISTS: Yuriy Suprunchuk* SIZE: 30x20 cm/11.81x7.87 inches'* MEDIUM: oil, cardboard* 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: Zhitomir artist Suprunchuk Yuri Sergeevich Born on April 11, 1961, in the city of Zhitomir.
