Morning on the bay (mixed-media, acrylic and gold leaf) (36x48x1.5") (2023) Original Mixed-media Painting by Alexander Koltakov

Original, one-of-a-kind large acrylic and gold leaf on gallery wrapped canvas painting from the "Golden Light series".

"Golden Light" is a series of paintings -seascapes and landscapes, depicting amazing shores and ocean views of Nova Scotia, Canada. What is unique in this set of artworks, that in each of them I incorporate a gold leaf into acrylic paints. It creates a really magic atmosphere of sparkling light on the sky, the clouds, the ocean waves and boats. Factually the golden light is the sunlight, which rays are falling from the sky and enlightening all around, creating contrasts, reflecting from the water, playing with other colors on the canvas and finally getting caught by the eye of the observer. The intensity of the light is changing with the angle of the view and is getting enhanced by the different lighting which surrounds the painting. The painting looks wonderful as under the bright day light, as in the dim evening shadows.
The shore depicted here is at the Lunenburg Bay. Beautiful Lunenburg is a port town in Lunenburg County, Nova Scotia, Canada. Situated on the province's South Shore, Lunenburg is located on the Fairhaven Peninsula at the western side of Mahone Bay. Amazing ocean views, colorful saltboxes houses, sun light diving in the dark blue water and playing on moored boats and ships - everything there just asks to be memorized on the canvas.
