Underwater glare. (2023)Acrylic painting
by Viacheslav Zaykin

"Underwater Glare" is a 100×73 cm mixed-media painting exploring the quiet, dreamlike world beneath the surface. The female figure is painted in smooth, realistic detail, while the surrounding blue underwater environment is built with expressive palette-knife textures, creating movement, light refraction, and depth.

This artwork blends realism and abstraction: the serene face contrasts with dynamic strokes of turquoise, ultramarine, and soft aqua tones. Subtle highlights mimic shimmering underwater glare, bringing a sense of calm, silence, and weightlessness.

Perfect for collectors who appreciate contemporary figurative art, blue tonal palettes, water-themed paintings, and large statement pieces for modern interiors.
