Last rays (2023)Oil painting by Bohdan Vykhrenko

This oil painting on canvas beautifully captures the serene and warm ambiance of a sunset. The artist's skillful use of color and light transports the viewer to a tranquil scene where the last rays of the sun cast a golden glow over a dry field.

At the center of the composition, the setting sun is a radiant orb of orange and gold, hovering just above the horizon. Its fading light bathes the entire landscape in a warm, comforting embrace. The sky above transitions from a rich, deep blue near the sun to softer shades of pink and lavender as it nears the horizon, creating a breathtaking display of colors.

The dry field in the foreground is transformed by the sun's touch. The golden rays play upon the field, casting long shadows and highlighting the texture of the earth. The field, though parched, appears to come alive with the dancing play of light, and the warmth it exudes is palpable.

In the distance, a sense of calmness prevails. The landscape stretches out in a vast and uninterrupted expanse, inviting the viewer to bask in the tranquility of the moment. There is a feeling of stillness and quietude, as if the world has paused to appreciate the beauty of the setting sun.

Painting evokes a deep sense of peace and warmth. It is a testament to the beauty of nature in its simplest form, where the interplay of light and landscape creates a moment of pure serenity. The painting invites the viewer to share in the quiet contemplation of a day's end and the promise of a new day to come.
