This original work, «Mooring in Myshkin», was created by contemporary Russian artist Olga Dushechkina and is available for purchase online.
Olga Dushechkina’s painting «Mooring in Myshkin» is not just a landscape but a true ode to the impressionist vision. The artist transports the viewer to the quiet embankment of the old town of Myshkin, turning an ordinary view of moored boats and waterfront buildings into a kaleidoscope of pure, vibrating emotions.
The technique of execution impresses at first glance. Dushechkina works with thick, impasto strokes, apparently using a palette knife. This technique gives the canvas surface an incredible texture that literally pulses with energy. The strokes lie close to each other, layering one over another, creating a sense of volume and movement, especially in the depiction of the water.
Water is the central element of the composition. It is not smooth and mirror-like but lively and rippling. The artist masterfully conveys the play of light on the river’s surface, using bold, contrasting colors: deep shades of umber and blue-green tones, through which bright ochre and turquoise splashes suddenly break through. These reflections distort the outlines of the boats and buildings, creating an effect of an underwater world full of shimmering mysteries.
The boats tied to the shore are painted with the freedom characteristic of post-impressionism. Their forms are conventional, but their colors—a bright reddish hull and a soft white body—set warm accents in the cool palette of the water and sky.
Rising above the water are the shoreline buildings. They are defined by large blocks of color—pastel ochre, muted pinks, and lilac tones. The architecture here is secondary; it serves only as a background that captures and refracts the sunlight falling on the scene.
«Mooring in Myshkin» is an ode to the moment. The painting conveys not so much a specific place as the feeling of summer, possibly midday, calm disturbed only by a gentle current and the play of light. Olga Dushechkina invites the viewer not just to look at the Volga but to feel its warmth, hear the quiet splash, and breathe in the fresh air of this old Russian corner. The painting leaves a sense of joy and painterly boldness.
This painting can be hung on the wall in your apartment, house, office, restaurant, or hotel, and it will become a wonderful decoration for your interior.
