Elena Shkurnikova’s painting «Red plums» is a juicy and appetizing still life that seems to emit the aroma of ripe fruit and the warmth of summer sunshine. The artist skillfully conveys the rich color and velvety texture of the plums, creating an image that invites you to taste them.

The dark pits visible in the center of the plums add depth and realism to the composition. The leaves surrounding the fruit are painted in muted green and brown tones, creating a contrast with the bright colors of the plums and emphasizing their beauty. They lie casually, as if just picked from the branch, adding liveliness and immediacy to the still life.
The background of the painting is minimalist, done in pastel beige and cream tones. The absence of sharp details allows the viewer to focus on the plums, which are the main protagonists of this scene.
The painting technique is characterized by realism and impressionism. Shkurnikova uses broad, confident brushstrokes to create a sense of volume and texture. Light and shadow play an important role in creating the overall impression of the still life, emphasizing its depth and perspective.
The title of the painting — «Red plums» — accurately conveys the main idea of the work: a celebration of the beauty and taste of summer fruits. Plums, as a symbol of abundance and generosity of nature, remind us of the simple joys of life.
