This oil painting cardboard, titled "Yellow sunset over sunflowers", the artist employs bold, expressive brushstrokes to create a textured, almost sculptural surface, bringing the sunflowers and the surrounding landscape to life. The foreground is dominated by a sea of sunflowers, their large, round faces drooping slightly, possibly indicating the end of the day. The flowers are painted in deep reds, warm oranges, and golden yellows, their petals thickly applied in impasto style, adding a rich tactile quality. The green stems and leaves contrast sharply against the fiery tones of the flowers, reinforcing the vibrancy and movement within the composition. The variation in size and placement of the sunflowers creates a sense of depth and natural randomness, as if the viewer is standing right in the middle of the field. In the middle ground, the sunflower field stretches toward the horizon, gradually blending into the background. The artist uses cooler shades of blue and purple to depict distant foliage and vegetation, contrasting beautifully with the warm hues in the foreground. This interplay of colors enhances the sense of distance and atmospheric depth, drawing the viewer’s eye further into the composition. The background is a spectacle of color and emotion. The sky is painted in luminous shades of green and yellow, suggesting the last golden rays of the setting sun filtering through layers of clouds. The brushstrokes are loose and dynamic, creating a swirling effect that adds movement to the sky. The distant horizon glows with a soft, warm light, highlighting the silhouettes of buildings or trees, barely visible against the fading daylight. The painting’s overall impressionistic style, characterized by thick layers of paint and a rich, saturated palette, evokes a feeling of warmth and abundance. The use of complementary colors—fiery oranges and cool purples, deep greens and golden yellows—creates a striking visual harmony, making the scene feel both dramatic and serene. The exaggerated hues and expressive technique give the painting a dreamlike quality, almost as if it captures not just a landscape but the very essence of a summer evening. The painting celebrates the fleeting yet eternal charm of sunflowers under a glowing sunset, evoking nostalgia, peace, and a deep appreciation for the simple wonders of the natural world.
