This oil painting cardboard, titled "Going fishing after the rain", the artist employs an impasto technique, using thick, expressive brushstrokes to create a sense of movement and depth, bringing the viewer into a world of refreshed colors, glistening reflections, and a quiet return to tranquility. The foreground is dominated by tall, golden-brown grasses, painted with rough, energetic strokes that give them a sense of wildness and life. Patches of green emerge from the earthy tones, suggesting fresh growth nourished by the recent rainfall. A small wooden pier, weathered and slightly overgrown, juts into the water, adding a rustic element to the composition. At the center of the painting, a lone fisherman in a small blue boat is seen rowing across the calm, reflective surface of the river. His presence adds a human element to the scene, evoking a sense of solitude and connection with nature. The blue of the boat contrasts beautifully with the surrounding warm tones, drawing the viewer’s eye to the peaceful figure as he glides through the water. Beyond the river, a row of lush green trees stands tall, their foliage illuminated by the soft, diffused light breaking through the dark sky. The artist uses a mix of deep greens, bright yellows, and earthy browns to create the effect of wet leaves glistening under the post-rain sunlight. The reflections of the trees in the water add to the serene mood, their rippling forms blending seamlessly with the earthy tones of the riverbank. The sky above is a striking mix of dark storm clouds and soft, pastel hues, painted in swirling, dynamic strokes. Patches of purple, gray, and deep blue hint at the remnants of the passing rain, while lighter tones suggest that the storm is clearing, allowing the sun to break through. This contrast between darkness and light enhances the drama of the scene, emphasizing the fresh, renewed energy in the air. The painting captures that magical moment when the storm has passed, the air is crisp, and nature seems to take a deep breath before settling into calmness. Through expressive brushwork and a masterful interplay of color, the artist brings to life the beauty of a simple yet profound moment—a fisherman embracing the stillness of nature after the rain.
