The painting "Haystacks in the Field" bursts with life, texture, and vibrant color, capturing the essence of a sunlit countryside scene. The artist's expressive use of oil paint, applied thickly with a palette knife, creates a dynamic and tactile surface, making the landscape almost tangible. The rich impasto technique gives the work a sculptural quality, where each stroke adds depth and movement, enhancing the sense of energy within the natural setting. At the center of the composition, golden haystacks rise from the field like warm, sunlit mounds. The artist has used a striking combination of ochre, burnt sienna, and deep umber, blending these earthy tones into the surrounding environment. The haystacks, though loosely defined, are full of motion, as if swaying gently in a summer breeze. The textured paint creates an illusion of rough, fibrous surfaces, capturing the way light dances upon the dried grass. The foreground is a riot of colors, with greens, yellows, and touches of red interwoven to depict the uneven terrain. There is a sense of wild growth, with the land painted in broad, swirling strokes, making the viewer feel as if they are standing amidst tall grass, looking upon the scattered haystacks. The earth is warm and full of vitality, showing both cultivated fields and untamed nature blending into one harmonious composition. The middle ground features a line of dense trees and foliage, painted in deep blues, greens, and rich splashes of fiery orange and red. The contrast between the cool tones of the trees and the warmer shades of the field adds a striking balance to the painting. The artist's bold use of color brings an almost dreamlike quality to the landscape, where the trees appear alive with flickers of golden sunlight filtering through the branches. The thickly applied paint gives the impression of dense leaves and twisted branches, creating a sense of enclosure and warmth. The sky above is a mixture of cool blue and soft muted gray, with streaks of pink and lavender subtly worked into the upper portion of the painting. The heavy application of paint here creates a dramatic sky, hinting at the ever-changing moods of the countryside. The sky does not merely act as a backdrop but is an integral part of the composition, adding to the painting's sense of movement and atmosphere.

Presentation
Oleksiy Andriyovych Ivanyuk was born on March 13, 1954, in the city of Pyriatyn, Poltava Oblast, Ukraine. He is a painter and is married to O. Ivanyuk. He became a member of the National Union of Artists of Ukraine (NSHU) in 2003.
He completed his education at the Crimean Art School in Simferopol in 1987, where he was taught by prominent instructors including V. Bernadsky, L. Greiser, and M. Morgun. From 1988 to 2008, he taught fine arts at the Pyriatyn School-Gymnasium of Aesthetic Education.
Oleksiy Ivanyuk has been actively engaged in artistic work and has participated in national and international art exhibitions since 1978. He has held solo exhibitions in various locations including Kyiv (2003, 2007-2009), Lubny (Poltava Oblast), California (USA; both in 2006), Poltava (2007, 2010), Pryluky (Chernihiv Oblast, 2008), and Warsaw (2009).
His primary genres of art are landscape and still life. His paintings are characterized by emotional sincerity and a warm, soulful quality that affirms the harmony of life. His creative work is deeply rooted in national traditions and the cultural heritage of Ukraine.
Some of his artworks are preserved in the National Art Museum (NHM), the Taras Shevchenko National Museum, the Museum of Cultural Heritage in Kyiv, and the Poltava Local Lore Museum.
Some of Oleksiy Ivanyuk's notable works include:
- "March" and "Wildflowers" (both 2002)
- "Twisted Gentlemen" and "Still Life with Narcissus" (both 2004)
- "Sunflower Field," "Apple Blossom," and "Evening Breath" (all 2005)
- "Silence" and "Summer" (both 2006)
- "Sunflowers" (2007)
- "Star Field," "Such a Life...," and "In the Garden" (all 2009)
- "Cold" (2010).
These artworks showcase his talent and artistic expression, often focusing on themes related to nature and the Ukrainian cultural heritage.
After graduating from the N. Samokish Crimean Art School, the elder generation of Ivanyuks, Oleksiy and Oksana, founded their own art school in Pyriatyn, a small town in Poltava Oblast, which they supported financially for over a decade. Growing up under the influence of classical art, the couple favored working from nature, depicting classical still life and monumental canvases, with the secret of their compositional and dramatic strength lying in the use of naturism as their core philosophical concept.
In Oleksiy Ivanyuk's Poltava landscapes, there is a greatness in simplicity, a view of ordinary suburban landscapes as wonders that are no longer accessible to the average resident of a metropolis. Fauvist colors and impasto techniques are applied by the master to enhance expressiveness, while thick brushstrokes emphasize the form and relief of the depicted objects. Familiar places, houses immersed in green gardens, boundless steppes, fields, forest glades, and streets become lyrical abstractions and reach the level of aesthetic reflection, reflecting the author's sensory perception of the world.
In Oksana Ivanyuk's vibrant floral still lifes, baroque polyphony is embodied, which is why seemingly secondary elements become the main elements of the composition. Her lush bouquets are universal floral images of binary culture, with a variety of meanings that correspond to the main higher needs of existence. For Oksana Ivanyuk, reproducing flowers is always a display of personal experiences, a demonstration of her own attitude towards life situations, and the image itself becomes a symbol of beauty and harmony.
Both artists, Oleksiy and Oksana, have a unique approach to their craft, infusing their works with emotions, insights, and reflections on the world around them. Their dedication to preserving and promoting art is evident through their art school, where they pass on their knowledge and passion to the next generation of aspiring artists. Their creative endeavors continue to leave a lasting impact on the art world, inspiring viewers and fellow artists alike with their powerful and evocative works.
