In the arms of the sun
I love sunsets and the colors that appear with them. There is something intimate about them – as if the day whispers its last words to us before sleep. Gold, orange, pink, red, and a hint of blue – these colors not only paint the sky but also stir the inner strings within a person.
This cycle was born from that love. I didn’t plan it. It grew out of the need to capture the light that fades but leaves a mark. Each of these paintings is an attempt to capture that one, unique moment – just before silence, just before night.
When I paint, I do not replicate landscapes – I express feelings. Through light, I speak of gratitude, peace, hope, and tenderness. About what comes at the end of the day, when everything falls silent and only the sun remains, saying: "I was with you, I am, I will return."
This cycle is for those who also feel the magic of goodbyes, cherish the softness of the evening, and enjoy watching the world as it turns golden.
Cycle "In the Arms of the Sun" is a series of paintings by Barbara Puto dedicated to the experience of light as a source of warmth, tranquility, and emotional closeness. The sun is not a landscape motif here, but a state — a presence that envelops the space and organizes the rhythm of the painting.
Works from this cycle operate with a bright palette, soft color transitions, and a restrained painting gesture. Their goal is not narration or problem-solving, but rather the creation of mood and relationship with the viewer. This is contemporary painting that works through light, silence, and a sense of harmony.
"In the Arms of the Sun" is a cycle of emotional paintings created with the thought of everyday presence in the space of life. The works function well in homes, offices, and workplaces, bringing warmth, tranquility, and a moment of mindful pause.
