Kirkkoaittoja
From the collection of Järvenpää Art Museum
Kirkkoaittoja is a work by Sergei Lednev-Schukin, held at Järvenpää Art Museum.
This painting shows a weathered wooden cabin with a sagging roof and peeling walls. The paint is thick and textured, especially on the dark wood, giving it a rough look. A small window with a faded green tint sits in the center, and a dirt path leads up to the front door. In the background, a church with a blue dome and white cross stands against a cloudy sky. The brushstrokes are heavy, almost like the paint was scraped on in places. This style makes the cabin look even more worn and real. If you like this rough, textured look, check out *impasto*.
Sergei Lednev-Schukin’s photos frame quiet corners of churches and graveyards in soft light.
