Title: Oil painting Silence in the pasture Alex Kalenyuk Description: No.AAA5111The oil painting on Cardboard titled "Silence in the pasture" immerses the viewer in the golden stillness of a rural landscape at dusk, where light and color become the language of peace. This artwork radiates warmth, not just from the vivid palette dominated by yellows, oranges, and deep reds, but from the sense of serenity that permeates every brushstroke. It is a portrait of nature in its purest, most harmonious form—untouched, expansive, and whispering with the quiet voice of twilight. The canvas bursts with saturated hues, capturing the pasture as a sea of golden grasses swaying gently in the evening breeze. Thick, textured impasto strokes give the field a living quality, as if each blade of grass is infused with sunlight. The painter’s hand is confident and expressive, layering ochres and amber tones to create depth and movement within the stillness. This pasture is not just land—it is memory, rhythm, and breath. Above the horizon, the sky becomes a dramatic canvas of its own. Bold strokes of magenta and fuchsia sweep across a base of luminous yellow, creating a sunset that feels almost dreamlike. The interplay of these striking colors is more than a representation of sky—it’s an emotional crescendo, a final exhale from the sun before night settles in. The fiery clouds seem to pulse with inner light, casting a warm glow over the entire scene. In the distance, a faint line of darkened shapes—perhaps trees, distant cottages, or grazing animals—grounds the composition and subtly separates the vibrant field from the painted sky. Their muted outlines serve as a visual rest point, drawing the viewer's eye gently through the landscape without distraction. These forms do not intrude; they anchor, offering a quiet contrast to the brilliance that surrounds them. Closer to the foreground, a few expressive strokes suggest wildflowers and thistles standing proudly amidst the grasses. Rendered in deep reds and purples, they add dimension and texture, reminding us that even in the vastness of the pasture, small stories and details unfold. Their placement is not accidental—they act as a gentle reminder that beauty resides in both the expanse and the intimate.*** ABOUT THIS PAINTING **** TITLE: "Silence in the pasture"* ARTISTS: Alex Kalenyuk* SIZE: 15x20 cm/'5.90x7.87 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: Born March 13, 1954, in the city of Piryatin, Poltava region.
