The painting titled "A Site with a View of the City" portrays a serene yet dynamic moment of artistic expression. The composition centers around an artist standing on a lush green hill, observing and recreating the panoramic cityscape before him. Using bold and vibrant oil strokes, the artist captures the juxtaposition of natural beauty and urban life.In the foreground, the figure of the artist is presented from behind, emphasizing his focus on the canvas and the scene ahead. He wears a casual purple shirt and blue jeans, highlighting the simplicity of his attire against the vibrant setting. The painter’s easel, tools, and canvas stand out amidst the greenery, suggesting that he is deeply immersed in his work. His posture, slightly leaning forward with his hand gesturing toward the city, conveys a sense of dedication and contemplation.The background reveals a breathtaking view of the cityscape, featuring a blend of architectural and natural elements. Towering modern buildings rise in the distance, painted in soft, muted tones, while a large river winds gracefully through the scene, adding depth and movement. In contrast, the foreground bursts with the colors of a verdant park, dotted with flowers and foliage. A hint of sunlight illuminates the greenery, creating a lively yet tranquil atmosphere.Through this piece, the artist explores the harmony between nature and urbanization. The vivid greenery in the foreground serves as a reminder of the natural beauty that coexists with human development. The artist's act of painting symbolizes an attempt to capture this balance and preserve the fleeting moment of connection between man, nature, and the city."A Site with a View of the City" invites the viewer to appreciate the intricate relationship between the natural world and modern life. The choice of vibrant colors and fluid brushwork reflects the artist’s admiration for the scene, while the act of painting within the painting underscores the transformative power of art in interpreting and celebrating our surroundings. This piece inspires reflection on the beauty of urban landscapes as seen through the eyes of a passionate observer.

About the artists: Oleksiyander Gukalov
After graduating from Lviv Polytechnic, he was engaged in scientific work. In his free time, he studied the works of Plato, the poetry of the ancient East, and religious works. At this time, resistance to the routine of life and utilitarian science arose in him; he became interested in man and his secrets. Oleksiyander decided to end his engineering career and become a humanitarian. Since 1990, he began to write and publish philosophical poems. Later he decided to devote himself to painting, a passion for which began during his years of study at the Lviv Polytechnic with caricatures and caricatures of classmates and teachers.
Since 2017 he has been painting with oil paints. Oleksiyander does not have a formal art education, but he is convinced that the craft and talent of an artist do not directly depend on professional education. The artist's works are characterized by completeness of composition and depth of meaning. He is not afraid to work with different themes, his paintings are true modern art that touches people. The artist’s portfolio includes landscapes and views of his favorite cities, portraits of pop stars, politicians, athletes, relatives, and animals. “I draw a toga when I feel the need for it. Therefore, I cannot say that I work in some narrow direction. Rather, it is a call from the soul,” the artist says about himself.
