In Complementary II, a yellow buoy rests calmly atop deep blue waters, its rounded form glowing against the cool expanse. Executed in oil on canvas, the painting exemplifies realism seascape art while embracing a contemporary, almost abstract approach to reflection and pattern.
The colour palette centres on rich ultramarines and cobalt blues, layered with sinuous white reflections that weave across the surface. The buoy’s warm yellow stands in deliberate contrast, its reflection gently distorted beneath. This interplay of complementary hues enhances the visual tension while maintaining a sense of calm.
This is an original oil on canvas painting and is available for sale at Signet Contemporary Art and online. Complementary II highlights Hubarenko’s hyperreal mastery of water, where light, colour and surface converge in a striking yet balanced composition.
