This original work «On the other side of the road» was created by contemporary Russian artist Dmitriy Pashkov and is available for purchase online.
The painting “On the Other Side of the Road” (По ту сторону дороги) by Dmitriy Pashkov is a captivating portrait of a rhinoceros, executed in a style that combines realism with a vivid, impressionistic color palette. The work draws attention with its power, expressiveness, and unusual combination of colors.
The central element of the composition is the rhinoceros, depicted in close-up. The artist skillfully conveys the texture of its thick, wrinkled skin, powerful muscles, and impressive horn, which gives it the appearance of an unwavering guardian. The rhinoceros’s gaze is directed straight at the viewer, creating a sense of direct contact and dialogue. In its eyes, one can read calmness, strength, and perhaps some contemplation.
An unusual and attractive element of the painting is the color scheme. The background, depicting the sky, is painted in bright, contrasting colors: a rich turquoise shifts to soft, pastel shades of pink and lilac in the clouds. This combination creates an atmosphere of unreality and fairy-tale magic, making the rhinoceros, seemingly an ordinary animal, part of an unreal, enchanted world. The ground beneath the rhinoceros’s feet is also rendered in warm ochre tones, contrasting with the cool shades of its body.
Dmitriy Pashkov uses bold, expressive brushstrokes that give the work liveliness and dynamism. The shadows cast by the rhinoceros are especially striking; they are painted in blue tones, emphasizing their coolness and contrasting with the warm hues of the surrounding environment. This adds depth and volume to the entire composition.
The title “On the Other Side of the Road” can have many interpretations. It may symbolize looking at the animal from another side, as if from a new, unexpected perspective, or hint at the dangers lurking in the wild world. Regardless of the interpretation, the painting makes the viewer reflect on the place of animals in our world, their strength, vulnerability, and beauty.
“On the Other Side of the Road” is a work that impresses with its artistic execution and original approach to depicting the animal world. Dmitriy Pashkov has managed to create a piece that not only demonstrates his skill but also evokes deep emotions and contemplation.
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.
