Oil painting Summer day in the city Boris Serdyuk

№AAA3759

The oil painting on cardboard, titled "Summer Day in the City", captures the contrast between urban architecture and the natural elements that soften its rigid structures. The artist employs thick, expressive brushstrokes and a textured impasto technique to bring depth and energy to the scene, making the viewer feel the heat and atmosphere of a typical summer day in a residential neighborhood.The composition is dominated by towering apartment buildings, painted in muted shades of purple, pink, and gray. Their facades, rendered with thick, rough strokes, appear weathered, emphasizing the age and character of the structures. The perspective draws the eye toward the center of the painting, where the buildings recede into the distance, creating a sense of depth and enclosure. Despite their massiveness, the warm tones of sunlight reflecting off the surfaces add a touch of life to the concrete structures.In contrast, the foreground is filled with vibrant greens and earthy browns, depicting patches of grass, trees, and small bushes that bring a sense of freshness to the urban environment. The greenery, painted with rich and dynamic strokes, appears to thrive despite the dominance of concrete, suggesting the resilience of nature within the cityscape. A winding pathway, rendered in ochre and beige tones, leads through the scene, inviting the viewer to imagine walking through this familiar space.The sky above is a blend of warm yellows and blues, with swirling clouds that seem to capture the movement of a breezy summer day. The bright, diffused light filtering through the clouds enhances the impression of heat, casting soft shadows on the ground and buildings.Through "Summer Day in the City", the artist conveys a sense of nostalgia and familiarity, reflecting on the quiet beauty of everyday urban life. The painting highlights the coexistence of nature and human-made structures, showing how greenery can bring life to even the most industrial of landscapes. It evokes the sensation of a warm afternoon, where the sun beats down on the pavement, children play in shaded courtyards, and the hum of city life continues in the background. The painting invites the viewer to appreciate the ordinary—those overlooked corners of the city where nature and architecture merge to create a unique and harmonious environment.
