"Walk in the blooming garden"
Painting by Helen Shukina
70 x 60 cm • Canvas, Oil
Location:
Kyiv, Ukraine
60x70 cm. oil, canvas
Spring mood, lilac blooms, inspiration by Monet's paintings.
This picture was painted from life in the botanical garden on sunny spring day, when the lilacs were blooming. Fresh and vivid, fills with the living energy of nature.
The painting was painted in an impressionistic style, I can also call it the “A la prima” style, since the painting was painted in one go, from nature, until the state of nature changed. The living movement of life is captured on the canvas precisely thanks to this plein air method of painting.
I use professional quality oil paints. The painting you receive will be signed on the front and back by me.
Painting is ready to hang, has painted ends.
Good look unframed and framed.
