FOGGY MORNING IN CHRISTCHURCH DORSET

The landscape was painted in Dorset, on the South coast of England.

There is a refined beauty in the early Fall foggy mornings, in its tranquillity and serenity, its delicate colours of luxurious Autumn palette of Nature, doubled in the calm waters of rivers, canals and lakes...
In this painting, I aimed to capture the serene and mysterious ambience of a foggy morning by the waterfront. The soft haze blurs the lines between the boats and the water, instilling a sense of calm and introspection. The gentle play of light and shadow through the fog evokes a feeling of quiet solitude. This piece reflects moments of stillness and the beautiful, subtle interplay of nature and human presence, perfect for bringing tranquillity to any space.

About the Artist

Rezvaya.art
Born in 1943 in Alma-Ata, USSR.
My mother - Klaudia Osheva, a professional artist, hence from my early years I got grips of what a magic of creativity means.
Graduated from the University, specialising in German-Roman philology. But extensive travel, meeting people and exploration of nature were provoking me to reflect it with the means of fine art. So I got the second education - Odessa College of Arts "Grekovka". Started to exhibit while studying at the college. It was followed by numerous local, nationwide, All-Soviet Union and international exhibitions. Member of the Union of Artists of the USSR since 1986.
Living and working in the UK since 1998***.
My creative credo: any work of art should charge the viewer with positive energy - aesthetic, intellectual, emotional. Touch with any art should enrich the viewer, "to add, not to subtract". This on my opinion is its main task.
Preferred media - oil on canvas. Preferred genre - figurative art, compositions of "more than one approach". Figurative compositions demand knowledge of the whole spectre of genres - portraits, landscapes, still-life, - only then your fantasy is not restricted by any inner barriers. I worked in graphics, ceramics, murals and as a theatrical designer when I was invited as an art-director and costume designer for several productions of Odessa Drama Theatre.
Paintings - in the private collections in dozens of countries of the World, from Japan and Australia to Europe and both coasts of the USA, including two portraits at the collection of the Royal Geographical Society, London.
