"Builder's Day" Original Oil Painring Still Life Painting

WORK: Original oil Painting, One of a Kind MEDIUM: Oil on cardboard, Unique style YEAR: 2024 STYLE: Realism, Contemporary SUBJECT: Boots, Shoes, Still Life SIZE: 40x50cm DESCRIPTION: I saw the tools standing in the corner, the dynamics of their lines, the contrast of materials and textures, as well as the combination of forms inspired me to immediately create a still life from them. For me, creating still lifes is a task close to architecture. When different objects are combined and represent a single whole. In this case, the composition turned out to be very dynamic and expressive. I was eager to convey this dynamics in painting. But it is necessary to balance the diagonal directions with the rhythm of the verticals to create a sense of harmony. It is also important to build a scenario of how the viewer's gaze moves in the space of the picture, plunging into the depths, sliding over objects, as if making a journey. The work also turned out to be interesting in color, warm shades of wood and rust beautifully emphasize the cold color of the metal and the blue of the plastic. And, as it should usually be in painting, there is something more that cannot be described in words.
