Plein-air landscape in oil Aspen grove by the river, authors work in oil on primed canvas on hardboard. The plein-air landscape was painted in 4 sessions in the open air, and the details were finalized in the studio. Canvas linen 100% coarse-grained. The picture shows the natural state of the weather. The suns rays illuminate individual branches of trees and shrubs, and also fall on a dried fallen tree. The old bark on the fallen tree has not yet fallen off everywhere and sometimes hangs from the trunk of the tree. Blue leaves of aspens fall on the water and small boats slowly float along the river. Old reeds are stuck between the branches of a fallen tree and do not let the leaves float freely, but some still manage to slip through the barrier. A small river flows slowly, slowly, winding a thin snake through a flat valley.It will not soon bring its waters to the big river.
