Oil painting Observation

The painting captures the stunning beauty of a sunset over a river, with the sky painted in warm shades of orange, yellow and red. A man floats down the river in a small wooden boat with his back to the viewer. The boat moves towards a large white airship hovering over the river. The airship contrasts sharply with the natural landscape with its sleek metal hull and streamlined design.

The river itself is quite wide, and its surface is calm and motionless. The water reflects the colors of the sky, creating a beautiful mirror effect. The trees along the riverbank are silhouetted against the colorful sky, adding depth and dimension to the picture.

In general, the image is filled with peace and serenity, and the man in the boat seems to be enjoying a quiet evening on the river. The appearance of the airship adds an element of mystery and intrigue, hinting at a world beyond the scene's natural beauty. This is a painting that inspires wonder and imagination, leaving the viewer with more questions than answers.

About the artists: A group of Ukrainian artists, united by their studies at the Dnepropetrovsk Art College and the National Academy of Arts (NAOMA), represent the art community "Squat on Olegovskaya" in the art space of Ukraine. The history of this society, founded in the early 1990s, reflects the dynamic development of the author's artistic concept in the context of national art at the turn of the century. This group of artists has gone through a creative path from the first "quiet" exhibition "Leaf Fall" (1993) to bright and large-scale projects at the beginning of the 21st century.
