Title: Acrylic painting Summer morning Mykhailo Patskan Description: No.AAA4894The acrylic painting on cardboard titled "Summer Morning" captures a scene filled with warmth, calm, and the quiet magic of rural life beginning at the break of day. With expressive brushwork and radiant colors, the artist transports the viewer to a pastoral hilltop bathed in the early morning glow. This moment, both intimate and expansive, tells a story of harmony between humans, animals, and the land they inhabit. In the foreground, a herd of sheep grazes peacefully across soft rolling hills, their forms rendered in textured whites and creams with hints of light violet and blue that suggest the morning dew still clings to their wool. Their arrangement feels natural and fluid, suggesting gentle movement as they follow one another in a loosely formed path. They are portrayed not as mere figures, but as living, breathing beings — a part of the land they tread. Just above the flock, a shepherd stands silhouetted against the rising sun. Though painted with minimal detail, their upright posture and placement on a sun-kissed path give a quiet dignity to the figure. A staff or stick in hand subtly signals their role and connection to the animals and the rhythm of daily rural life. The shepherd watches over the flock and welcomes the new day with steadiness and peace. This small but poignant human presence grounds the scene emotionally, linking the viewer to a timeless tradition of watching over nature and moving with its cycles. The landscape is lush and alive, painted in rich shades of green interspersed with earthy tones. Patches of golden yellow and sunlight orange seem to flicker on the ground, illuminating the pasture as the sun makes its way higher into the sky. The trees in the middle ground — a mix of deep forest greens and purples — offer depth and contrast to the composition, evoking the cool stillness of early morning shadows before the heat of the day arrives. But it is the sky that dominates the painting with its sheer vibrancy and emotional resonance. Exploding in waves of fuchsia, magenta, lavender, and blazing orange, the sky radiates energy and optimism. The sun is not yet high in the sky but already shines with soft brilliance, its rays extending in painterly strokes that dissolve into pinks and purples. This dazzling sunrise is not just a backdrop — it is a living presence in the painting, full of color and promise.*** ABOUT THIS PAINTING **** TITLE: "Summer morning"* ARTISTS: Mykhailo Patskan* SIZE: 20x30 cm/'7.87x11.81 inches' * MEDIUM: acrylic, cardboard* HAND PAINTED: Original painting from our collection* CONDITION: Photos provide accurate information about the product.About the artists: Mykhailo Stepanovych Patskan Born on January 18, 1961 in the city of Khust.
