Second wind. (2025)Oil painting by Viacheslav Zaykin

"Second Wind" is a captivating realist portrait that captures a moment of serene surrender beneath the water's surface. A girl with a gentle expression and closed eyes is immersed in a tranquil, aquatic world. The play of light is the true protagonist of this piece; intricate caustic patterns dance across her face, creating a mesmerizing, ethereal effect of refracted sunlight.

This painting is a meditation on peace, renewal, and the quiet power of introspection. The underwater setting symbolizes a return to a primordial state of calm, a "second wind" for the soul. Meticulously painted in the realist tradition, it invites the viewer to pause, breathe deeply, and share in this profound moment of stillness and weightless tranquility.
