Last rays. Rhodes. Greece (2014)Oil painting
by Simon Kozhin

Walking around the neighborhood on the island of Rhodes, I found picturesque motifs in different parts of this area. One afternoon, I even wandered into a former military base where there was abandoned military equipment and barracks for soldiers. The territory itself, although it was surrounded by a conditional fence, the gates were open and in some places, the fence was already damaged. Just not far from this place, I noticed this motif with pine trees on top of the hill. In the evening, red shades of light permeate everything, creating a picturesque texture. It was rare to meet a passer-by with a dog in these places. But the view of the city was quite organic and panoramic. The cool evening wind pleasantly enveloped me while I was painting a sketch of nature, during the day it was scalding hot.
