Title: Oil painting Edge of the village Oksana Kalenyuk Description: NoAAA5200The oil painting on Canvas titled "Edge of the Village" captures a moment of rustic serenity on the threshold between cultivated land and the open countryside. The composition is built around a rhythmic interplay of color and texture, immersing the viewer in the golden warmth of harvest season. Through its vivid impasto technique and sweeping perspective, the painting speaks to both the tranquility and richness of rural life. The central theme of the work is a landscape in full summer bloom, radiating with hues of ochre, saffron, burnt sienna, and grassy green. Thick, expressive brushstrokes create a textured surface that evokes the tactile essence of the scene-wheat fields ripe for harvest, the crunch of hay underfoot, and the softness of the breeze brushing against the countryside. In the foreground, layered applications of paint form tall grasses and loosely piled haystacks, their shapes curling naturally under the weight of the sun. The use of deep red and golden tones in this lower portion of the painting establishes a rich, earthen foundation, suggesting both the labor of human hands and the generosity of the land. The movement of the brush in this area is bold and dynamic, lending a sense of motion to what could otherwise be a static scene. A narrow path weaves gently through the field, guiding the viewer's gaze deeper into the landscape. Along this path walks a solitary figure-rendered in warm tones of red and brown-moving slowly toward the distant cottages nestled at the tree line. This figure becomes a quiet focal point in the painting, embodying the connection between human presence and the land. The figure is small, yet not insignificant, as if the painter wants to remind us that harmony with nature lies in simplicity. The houses at the edge of the village emerge just beyond the field, their white walls and bright red roofs providing a striking contrast against the surrounding greenery. Their presence offers a sense of shelter and continuity, grounded by the trees that rise behind them in deep shades of green, blue, and violet. The trees act as guardians, linking the domestic space with the natural world.*** ABOUT THIS PAINTING **** TITLE: "Edge of the village"* ARTISTS: Oksana Kalenyuk* SIZE: 15x20 cm/5.90x7.87 inches'* MEDIUM: oil, canvas* 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: Kalenyuk Oksana was born in 1964 in Rivne region.
