This original artwork “Study with poppies” was created by the contemporary Russian artist Ekaterina Kebal  and is available for sale online

Ekaterina Kebal’s painting “Study with Poppies” is a vibrant and dynamic still life, capturing the moment of blooming field poppies. It’s not just a depiction of flowers, but a subtle transmission of their energy, beauty, and that special charm that they bring to the summer landscape.

The canvas is filled with color, primarily due to the dominant red hue of the poppy petals. Their bright and saturated tone contrasts with the greenery of the foliage and creates a feeling of warmth and joy. The poppies are depicted in close-up, allowing the viewer to examine their shape, texture, and the play of light on the surface of the petals.

The flowers are not arranged chaotically but form a certain composition in which each poppy occupies its own place. Some of them have blossomed in all their glory, showing off their bright petals and dark centers. Others are just beginning to open, demonstrating their fragility and tenderness.

The greenery surrounding the poppies is also made using various shades of green, from dark to light. This creates a feeling of depth and volume, and also emphasizes the brightness of the red flowers. The greenery serves as a background against which the poppies look even more effective.

Despite the fact that the foreground of the painting is occupied by flowers, a small part of a brick wall is guessed in the background. It, although depicted blurred, makes it clear that the poppies are not growing in a wild field, but, most likely, in a garden or flower bed. The brick wall acts as a kind of limiter, emphasizing the beauty and fragility of the flowers.

The artist skillfully uses the technique of Impressionism, creating an atmosphere of liveliness and movement on the canvas. Brushstrokes are applied carelessly, but accurately convey the shape and texture of flowers and foliage. Thanks to this, it creates the feeling that the poppies are swaying in the wind, and the sunlight is playing on their petals.

Overall, the plot of the painting conveys a feeling of joy, summer warmth, and admiration for the beauty of nature. Simple field poppies, captured by the artist, turn into a real masterpiece, capable of lifting the mood and reminding us that true beauty is often found in simple things. The painting seems to say that even in a small garden surrounded by a brick wall, you can find a source of inspiration and joy, just by looking around carefully.

This painting can be hung on the wall of your apartment, house, office, restaurant, or hotel and will be a wonderful decoration for your interior. You can buy online the artwork “Study with poppies” measuring 50 x 40 cm with secure shipping to your location!
