About this artwork
Silence of the Fading Day" is a deeply poetic oil painting that captures a serene moment of inner reflection. A young woman sits on the shore, completely dissolved in the quiet harmony of the approaching twilight.
The choice of her deep blue dress is highly intentional and symbolic, inspired by the literary symbolism of J.D. Salinger, where blue represents absolute sincerity, emotional purity, and vulnerability. In cultural mythology, blue is the… color of loyalty and spiritual love, yet in visual language, it also evokes a sense of melancholy ("the blues"). Her posture and attire reflect a gentle sadness born from profound, emotional love-related experiences.
The artwork is built on a delicate balance of classical realism and atmospheric light. The soft, warm glow of the setting sun on the horizon gently touches her hair and face, contrasting beautifully with the cool, deep tones of the evening sea. This piece is not just a landscape, but a visual meditation on love.

Credentials
- Works on commission
I am Elena Kuzenko (Olena Kuzenko), a Ukrainian contemporary oil painter based in Odesa. Rooted in classical realism, my practice combines a strong knowledge of anatomy, color, light, and shadow with an emotional approach to figurative painting.
My work explores the fragility of human feelings, family bonds, inner balance, and the search for safety in an uncertain world. Living through the war in Ukraine has deepened my interest in how people preserve hope, dignity, and compassion during times of crisis. Through symbolic images and visual narratives, I seek to invite reflection while retaining beauty and light.
My work has been presented by ArtSeen, Clover Gallery, Visual Art Journal, and Arty Rat Magazine. I received a Winner Diploma at the XX International Art Festival MALUY.UA in Kyiv and was selected for The Big Book of Painters 2026 by Arts to Hearts Project. My paintings were also selected for physical exhibitions in Barcelona and Budapest in 2026.
