Petersburg Sketches 1

From the series "Petersburg Sketches", 3040 cm, oil on canvas
A vivid urban sketch from the "Petersburg Sketches" series, created with oil and palette knife. The work captures the lively atmosphere of old Saint Petersburg: sunlight glides along the facades of buildings, church domes stand out brightly in the background, and the street is filled with color and movement.
The free, expressive brushwork typical of plein air studies brings a sense of freshness and rhythm. In these sketches, I aimed to convey not only the architectural environment, but also the spirit of the place — recognizable, warm, and full of life, as seen in the city fragments of Petersburg streets.
This painting is ideal for those who appreciate characterful cityscapes filled with color, energy, and mood. It will serve as a striking accent in any interior.
