Title: Oil painting On the summer lake Alex Kalenyuk Description: NoAAA3832This oil painting cardboard, titled "On the summer lake", the composition is structured around a reflective lake surrounded by lush greenery and golden fields. In the foreground, a small rowboat drifts gently on the water, with a single figure leisurely rowing. The boat and its occupant serve as the focal point, drawing the viewers eye into the heart of the composition and adding a human connection to the otherwise untouched natural landscape. The middle ground is dominated by a cluster of willows with sweeping branches cascading toward the waters surface. These trees, painted with thick strokes of deep green and golden hues, create a sense of movement, as if swaying gently in the summer breeze. The reflections of the willows shimmer in the lake, further enhancing the depth and dynamism of the scene. Beyond the trees, rolling golden fields stretch toward the horizon, bathed in the warm glow of sunlight. The artist uses a mixture of ochres, yellows, and muted purples to depict the dry summer grasses, creating a striking contrast with the lush greens near the water. The distant sky is painted in a blend of soft blues, purples, and pinks, with wispy clouds drifting across, reinforcing the feeling of a warm, peaceful afternoon. The artist masterfully blends warm and cool tones to create a harmonious and visually striking composition. The rich greens of the willows and the deep blues of the water contrast beautifully with the golden fields and the soft pastel tones of the sky. The lighting in the painting is natural and diffused, with sunlight filtering through the leaves, casting dappled shadows on the water. The play of light and shadow adds depth and realism, making the scene feel alive and full of warmth. The painting embodies the feeling of a perfect summer day, where time slows down, and the beauty of nature takes center stage. It is a reminder of the timeless pleasure of being near the water, listening to the sounds of nature, and basking in the warmth of the sun.*** ABOUT THIS PAINTING **** TITLE: "On the summer lake"* ARTISTS: Alex Kalenyuk* SIZE: 15x20 cm/'5.90x7.87 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.
