"Neptuno" is a hauntingly beautiful oil painting that portrays the powerful and enigmatic figure of Neptune, the Roman god of the sea. The composition focuses on a marble statue of Neptune, depicted from the torso up, emerging from a frothy cascade of water. The god's stern, weathered face and muscular upper body are rendered with exquisite detail, capturing the strength and authority inherent in his character. The background is a dark, stormy gray, enhancing the dramatic and somber mood of the piece. This dark backdrop contrasts starkly with the white and light blue tones of Neptune and the water, creating a striking visual impact. The water, depicted with a variety of techniques, appears to both crash and gently cascade around Neptune, giving the impression of the god rising from the sea amid a tempest. The texture of the painting is rich and varied, with thick, expressive brushstrokes used to depict the water's movement and finer, more detailed work on Neptune's form. The splashes and drips of paint in the lower half of the canvas suggest the chaotic and relentless power of the sea, while the smoother, more controlled lines of the statue convey a sense of timeless solidity and permanence. Neptune's gaze, turned slightly to the side, adds a dynamic quality to the composition, as if he is surveying his domain or contemplating the vastness of the ocean. His crown, adorned with what appears to be seaweed or coral, further emphasizes his dominion over the marine world. "Neptuno" can be interpreted as a reflection on the power and mystery of the sea, as well as the enduring legacy of classical mythology. Neptune, as the god of the sea, embodies both the beauty and the ferocity of the ocean, and his emergence from the water suggests a connection between the natural world and the divine. The painting captures the duality of the sea as a source of life and a force of destruction. The dark, stormy background may symbolize the challenges and uncertainties of the natural world, while Neptune's calm yet powerful presence serves as a reminder of the resilience and strength that lies within nature and mythology. The interplay of light and dark, calm and chaos, invites viewers to contemplate their own relationship with the natural world and the myths that shape our understanding of it. "Neptuno" is a masterful oil painting that blends realism with a sense of mythic grandeur. The artist's skillful use of contrast, texture, and composition creates a powerful and evocative image of Neptune that resonates with themes of strength, resilience, and the timeless power of the sea. This painting is a striking homage to classical mythology and the enduring fascination of the natural world.

Presentation
Oleg Kateryniuk was born in 1969 in Ukraine.. has made a successful career as a graphic designer.. But, over the years we become more sensitive to people, to nature, to the environment, to everything around us. So something happened, noticed, interested you and sits in you, with its emotions, feelings, its truth and philosophy.. no-no, it does not bother you, just sometimes, as if talking to you, tells your story, pulls your strings souls, and are forced to flee in search of something new, still unnoticed, and very, as it seems at this time, so necessary.. and not only you.. And in such moments you take a pencil, brushes and everything at hand.. and you draw.. being left alone with canvas or paper and your thoughts..
