Yaseneva Sveta - Path by the Luminous Water

I live and work in Slovakia. The delivery time for my paintings within the European Union is 7-10 days.
"Path by the Luminous Water"
This original painting is my captured moment of a night of silence and magic, where the reality of the bank meets the fierce reflection in the water. I executed it in a mixed media technique, combining oil paint and acrylic on canvas, to fully convey the depth and texture of the night landscape.
The dark, velvety sky and the silhouettes of the trees are painted in deep emerald-turquoise tones, while the slender branches appear to glow with silver light. To give this scene its palpable texture and play of light, I utilized relief (texture) paste. It was applied with a palette knife using thick, impasto strokes, which creates significant volume and three-dimensionality on the canvas surface, especially in the depiction of the tree bark and the snow on the branches.
The yellow light emanating from the cozy house finds its brightest and most dramatic expression in the water. It is here, thanks to the thick, tactile layers of relief paste and oil paint, that the reflection transforms into a blazing pool of orange and red hues. This sculptural, pronounced relief makes the water literally “burn” and vibrate, injecting untamed energy into the quiet scene. The single figure of a person walking a dog along the path only emphasizes the fragility and intimacy of this fairytale nightscape. The painting features a dense, tangible relief that interacts dynamically with light and shadow.
