Oil on canvas.
36x48x1"
This painting is a combination of bright, optimistic colors and dynamic composition to convey a sense of joy and cheerfulness, maybe because it was painted in the middle of summer, in the hottest days of July, when the sun is so generous and endless.
It is a visual feast for the eyes! In addition, the combination of colors is carefully balanced to create a harmonious whole. The composition is also noteworthy, focusing on joyful and cheerful shapes and lines that seem to dance across the canvas.
Despite the semi-abstract nature of the painting, there are still hints of recognizable elements that anchor us in the world of the picture. These details are carefully chosen and strategically placed, drawing our eye and creating a sense of depth and complexity within the painting. Us is invited to follow the lines and shapes of the image and explore its many layers allowing our eye to travel across the canvas and discover new elements with each viewing. The close attention to detail is balanced by a sense of fluidity and movement central to the painting's overall effect.

ARTIST’S STATEMENT
The process of creating my work is an organic one. The history and time of the creation of each art piece are crucial to me, and I keep the impulse of the emergence of an idea till the last brush stroke. My paintings seek to capture a fleeting moment or emotion while celebrating the joy of making.
Whether making a painting or drawing, I allow the elements I create to ‘appear’ on the surface of the canvas or paper.
My approach is mainly intuitive; the paintings unfold and develop almost of their own accord, and I aim to invite the viewer to find an emotional connection within the painting.
