Title: Oil painting The world is in water Boris Serdyuk Description: NoAAA5320The oil painting on Cardboard titled "The world is in water" offers a poetic meditation on reflection, both visual and philosophical. Through bold impasto brushwork and a palette alive with movement, the artist crafts a layered scene where the physical and the mirrored coexist, challenging the viewer to distinguish reality from illusion. The composition is anchored by a serene body of water that runs horizontally through the center of the canvas, dividing the landscape into two halves-one terrestrial, the other aquatic. Trees and shrubs rise along the banks, painted with rich, varied colors: warm ochres, siennas, and golds on the left suggest the fullness of autumn, while cooler greens and dense blues dominate the right, perhaps indicating shadows or denser foliage. These natural forms are echoed and warped in the water below, rendered in slightly more abstracted, blurred tones that mimic the fluid motion of ripples and the shifting light of a breeze-swept surface. The reflection itself is the soul of the painting. The water does not merely mirror the trees and sky-it transforms them. A brilliant golden canopy above becomes a molten cascade of bronze and amethyst below. Hints of lavender, periwinkle, and ultramarine emerge in the water's rendering, giving the scene an otherworldly depth. The brushstrokes in the reflection are looser, more lyrical, evoking the idea that the world in water is not simply a copy, but a parallel dimension-a realm of memory, dream, or emotion. The sky is rendered in light, wispy blues with hints of white and pale gray, suggesting a clear but dynamic day, perhaps early morning or the waning hours before dusk. This sky, too, finds its echo in the water, though in more muted tones-hinting at how reflection both reveals and distorts. The banks of the water, painted in varied greens, purples, and rusty reds, are dense with texture. The vegetation is tactile, sculpted by knife or thick brush, forming a vivid foreground that invites the viewer to step forward, peer into the water, and lose themselves in its depths.*** ABOUT THIS PAINTING **** TITLE: "The world is in water"* ARTISTS: Boris Serdyuk* SIZE: 21.5x29.2 cm/8.46x11.49 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 artists: Serdyuk Boris Petrovich was born on June 30, 1960 in the city of Konotop Sumy region.
