LIKE SUMMER
Series: RAIN MOOD
Artist: Kira Voronova
Medium: Oil on canvas
Size: 100 × 70 cm
Style: Abstract Expressionism
Canvas: Stretched on wooden stretcher, unframed
Color Palette: Cool and warm tones merge — soft blues, ivory, sand beige, and pale gold are accented by delicate pops of coral, amber, and sky blue. These hues evoke both sunlight and rainfall, wrapped in a gentle urban haze.
Theme: Urban rhythm, nostalgia, transience, atmosphere, memory of light
Concept: This painting captures the fleeting essence of a summer rain — a quiet moment where warmth and melancholy meet. The city fades into abstraction as textures echo movement and stillness simultaneously. Architecture becomes emotional terrain; lines suggest streets, windows, and reflections, yet nothing is literal. The painting invites viewers to pause, absorb the light, and feel time stretch and dissolve.
Signature: Signed on the back of the canvas
Technique: Executed with palette knife and expressive brushwork, the surface reveals intricate layering of translucent and opaque textures. Drips and fine scratches bring rhythm and depth, while controlled vertical strokes simulate the gentle cascade of rain. Transitions between color fields reflect the changing light of a summer afternoon.
