Winter river (2024)Oil painting by Bohdan Vykhrenko

"Winter river" is an oil painting on canvas capturing the serene beauty of late winter. The scene unfolds on a sunny day, where the remnants of winter still cling to the landscape. The river, freed from its icy grip, meanders peacefully through the painting, its waters reflecting the clear blue sky above.

The foreground is dominated by a blanket of pristine snow, untouched in some places and gently trodden upon in others. Amidst this winter tableau, a cluster of evergreen spruces and other trees line the riverbank, their boughs laden with snow, casting long shadows on the ground.

In the distance, the soft hues of early spring begin to emerge, hinted at by the faint green buds on the trees. A sense of tranquility pervades the scene, as if nature itself is taking a quiet breath before the arrival of springtime.

The artist has skillfully captured the interplay of light and shadow, with the sunlight filtering through the branches of the trees, casting dappled patterns on the snow-covered ground. This painting invites the viewer to immerse themselves in the peaceful solitude of a winter landscape on the cusp of transformation.
