SAILBOAT IN FRONT OF AN IMPENDING THUNDER Print

All proceeds from the sale of this painting during the war will be fully directed to the Ukrainian Relief Fund. The artwork is painted in oil on high-quality linen canvas in the style of impressionism. A sailboat in front of an impending thunderstorm is like Ukraine before the invasion of Russian troops. What will the blue color of the flag of Ukraine be like if thousands of rockets and bombs are dropped on Ukraine? It will become like the sky covered with dark clouds over the Black Sea in this picture. What will the yellow color of the flag of Ukraine be like if it is filled with the blood of Ukrainians suffering and dying during the war and covered with ashes from the conflagrations that the “Russian world” brought to Ukraine? Such as the water of the Black Sea under the dark clouds in this artwork. WAR!!! This is how the Black Sea appeared before me during the war. But despite all this horror, Ukraine is fighting and the ray of victory will surely begin to illuminate the path to light and freedom. Ukraine will also go forward, like a sailboat, illuminated by the morning sun, boldly sails forward, despite the impending thunderstorm. The artwork was painted in Odessa (Arcadia) on the seashore in the early morning. This painting, like all my paintings, is individual, I paint only what I saw personally (I never duplicate my work, I don't make copies from other people's paintings).
