Oil painting Autumn yellow sunset Oleksiy Ivanyuk

№AAA4473

The painting "Autumn Yellow Sunset" captures a picturesque rural scene bathed in the warm glow of an autumn evening. The artist employs bold, expressive strokes using the impasto technique, layering thick oil paints to create texture and depth. This approach lends the painting a vibrant, almost tangible quality, making the landscape feel alive and full of movement. In the foreground, a lush meadow filled with rich green and yellow hues stretches across the canvas. The grass, painted with thick strokes, appears soft yet textured, inviting the viewer to imagine the crispness of an autumn breeze. Small grazing animals, perhaps sheep or goats, dot the field, adding a touch of pastoral charm and a sense of tranquility to the scene. Their dark silhouettes contrast beautifully with the bright greens, emphasizing their presence in this peaceful countryside. The focal point of the painting is a traditional village house with a striking red roof, nestled among the trees. The roof’s bold color draws the eye, standing out against the surrounding foliage and sky. The walls of the house are painted in a cool white tone, softened by shadows and light, giving the structure a welcoming, lived-in feel. Next to it, a barn with a rusty red-brown roof sits comfortably within the landscape, its weathered exterior suggesting years of sheltering animals and storing harvests. The trees surrounding the houses are ablaze with autumnal colors, a mixture of deep oranges, reds, and golden yellows. Their thick, expressive brushstrokes convey the richness of the season, with leaves appearing to flutter in the light wind. The tallest trees stand proudly, their branches reaching upward, framing the composition and adding a sense of balance. Above, the sky is a harmonious blend of creamy yellows, soft pinks, and pale blues, suggesting the setting sun casting its golden glow over the village. The artist’s application of color creates an atmosphere of warmth and nostalgia, as if capturing the fleeting moments of daylight before dusk settles in. Wisps of clouds stretch across the sky, adding to the dreamlike quality of the scene.
