This oil painting cardboard, titled "The sun is setting", at the heart of the composition, three large haystacks stand prominently, their golden tones glowing under the fading sunlight. The artist masterfully blends warm yellows, oranges, and hints of red, creating an impression of dried grass catching the last light of the day. Shadows, painted in rich blues and purples, add depth and dimension, making the haystacks appear almost sculptural. The interplay of light and shadow suggests the gentle transition from day to night, as the landscape slowly cools under the sky’s changing hues. In the middle ground, a dense forest of trees emerges, their forms abstracted through expressive brushwork. The foliage is painted in a mix of deep reds, burnt oranges, and hints of dark green, evoking the fiery colors of autumn. The trees seem to shimmer with movement, as if rustling in a soft evening breeze. The texture of the paint adds an organic, almost wild quality to the landscape, enhancing the sense of untamed natural beauty. Above, the sky is a mesmerizing blend of cool mint green, soft pastel blue, and streaks of pink, reflecting the lingering light of the setting sun. The use of these unexpected colors creates a dreamlike atmosphere, adding an almost surreal quality to the scene. Wisps of pink clouds stretch across the horizon, their delicate presence contrasting with the bold, textured strokes of the land below. The foreground is filled with dynamic brushstrokes of deep green and earthy tones, suggesting the presence of grass and soil. This rich layering of color and texture grounds the composition, leading the viewer’s eye towards the focal points of the painting. The overall mood of "The Sun is Setting" is one of warmth, nostalgia, and tranquility. It captures the beauty of a fleeting moment, when the world is bathed in golden light before slipping into dusk. The artist’s use of bold colors and expressive technique invites the viewer to not only see but feel the landscape—to experience the gentle hush of evening settling over the countryside. This painting is a celebration of nature’s radiant beauty, a visual poem dedicated to the golden hours of the day.
