ORIGINAL ART WORKS // VINTAGE OIL PAINTING Spring Forest Landscape / Nature Art One of a Kind / Aerial Painting / Signed Artwork Creation date - 1969. The name "Spring" Materials: oil, canvas Dimensions: 44 cm x 60 cm (17.32 "x 23.62") The painting was signed by the artist on the back  In the picture "Spring" in the foreground are large, growing for decades, trees. They have thick, powerful crowns and sprawling branches. These trees "populate" the entire coast. It is evident that the artist captured the height of spring - there are green leaves on the trees, their branches form a lilac-gray haze that merges with the blue of the spring sky.     We see that the artist deliberately chose such an angle to fully show the "bulk" of spring air, to convey the entire spectrum of colors, to create a feeling in the audience not only of the color, but also of the smell, the "movement" of air.     The trees occupy the entire foreground and middle plan of the picture and smoothly descend into a small depression - towards the river, and we feel that the uneven shore, covered with young grass, is steep and high.     However, despite the fact that the main place in the picture is given to trees, they only help the "main character" of the canvas - the spring sky, which permeates all the elements of the picture. The artist masterly managed to convey the play of light, overflows of "transparent" colors - blue, blue, white, lilac, gray.     Thanks to the artist’s mastery, it seems as if the picture is saturated with fresh air, we can feel it, breathe in a light cool breeze, saturated with the aromas of awakening nature.     The artist depicted in his painting a “prosaic” landscape - a “slice” of Central Russian nature. However, his talent makes us see in this mundane fabulously beautiful and mysterious - a real Miracle ...

Ancient works // Original painting Sleeping child / portrait of a little boy / antique pastel painting / large painting / one of a kind / ready to be sent The painting "Son" was painted by Victoria Kostenko back in 1969. The title "Son .” Materials: sandpaper , pastel Dimensions: 73,5 cm x 102 cm (28.74"x 40,15") The picture is painted quite simply, without any frills. The writing style is realism. At first glance, the picture takes the viewer into a rural life typical of that time. The plot is very simple and simple, which gives the picture a special charm.  The protagonist is an ordinary baby who is sleeping sweetly, a portrait of a soldier, decorated with Ukrainian national embroidered canvas, hangs over his crib. If you carefully look at how thoroughly and thriftily all the details are drawn, it becomes clear how much the author loves what he paints, and even a person who is not too knowledgeable in painting involuntarily begins to sympathize with a small child. The artist perfectly reproduces the complex angles of the outlines of a little boy. This picture is an excellent example of the Russian school of realism. He needs a frame to hold it in place, but I will let the next owner decide which type of frame and which color will look better. I like these old paintings leaning against the walls because they really don't even need a frame to add to their interior style. Hello, our dear customer.
