This lively landscape by Alexandra Myatlova bursts with the energy of a poppy field. Using her signature impasto technique, Myatlova creates incredible texture in the vibrant red flowers that dominate the foreground. A winding path leads through the mass of blooms towards distant houses nestled amongst rolling fields of yellow and orange. Tall cypress trees stand sentinel, while the sky above swirls with expressive strokes, suggesting wind and light. The painting celebrates the intense color and life force of nature, inviting viewers to feel the warmth and abundance of a summer day in the countryside.
