More about this artwork

In this vivid depiction of Kaunas Old Town, a striking red brick church with a steeply pitched roof and a prominent bell tower commands attention at the center. Its angular forms and bright color contrast dynamically against a crisp blue sky punctuated by fluffy, white clouds. Bordering the church are rows of traditional, multi-story buildings, painted in an array of soft yellows and warm oranges, reflecting the historical architecture of the area. The street, subtly shaded and lined with parked cars, bends gently, leading the viewer’s eye through the composition. Sparse leafless trees and the play of sunlight and shadows bring a lively yet serene ambiance to the scene, evoking a sense of quiet city life under a wide, tranquil sky.

Artist

Petras Kardokas enjoys travelling and observing nature in various parts of Lithuania. This is where the author's inspiration for his paintings comes from. The artist captures our landscapes as if in a visual diary, at different times of the day and year, but his paintings always retain an impression of calm, warmth and cosiness. The artist's gaze is gentle, respectful and slightly romantic.

He was born in Lazdijai district. I graduated from school in the town of Mosėdis. 

In 1968-1973 studied at the Faculty of Construction-Architecture of KPJ. 

After graduation he worked as a foreman in various Lithuanian construction sites. 

In the evenings, fulfilling a childhood dream, he began to study painting at A. Martinaicis Art School, under painter Alfonsas Vilpišauskas.

Finally, since 1990, he has devoted all his time to painting.
