F11305 Summer Lights in Tuscany

"Summer Lights in Tuscany" is an ode to the warmth and harmony of Mediterranean landscapes. Iryna Malynovska masterfully captures the brilliance of sunlight on rolling fields and hills, conveying a sense of serenity and vitality.

In the foreground, a golden meadow unfolds with a rich, textured palette, punctuated by floral touches of violet and orange that create a striking contrast. The lush vegetation is painted with impasto techniques, using thick oil paint applied with both brush and palette knife.

The eye is then drawn to a cluster of small red-roofed houses nestled among trees. These elements structure the composition and serve as focal points, leading the viewer toward the background where fields and hills fade into a light atmospheric haze.

The colors used are bright and expressive: dominant greens and golds evoke the warmth of the Mediterranean sun, while contrasting reds and purples add subtle dynamism. The thick texture and layered colors create an almost tactile effect, enhancing the landscape’s depth.

Despite its small format (13x13 cm), this painting offers a full immersion into a sunlit Tuscan setting, where every detail contributes to a feeling of escape and tranquility.
