Golden reeds at dusk

Cold wax on wood panel.

36x24"

Golden Reeds at Dusk is a richly textured cold wax painting carved on wood, capturing the quiet poetry of nature bathed in evening light. Layers of luminous golds, fiery ambers, and deep blues unfold across the surface, evoking a glowing horizon reflected upon still waters.

Through the process of carving into cold wax, delicate reeds emerge—etched, revealed, and defined—giving the piece a tactile depth that invites both visual and physical exploration. The interplay between carved lines and layered pigment creates movement, as though the grasses sway gently in a warm, fading breeze.

At its heart, the painting holds a moment of transition—where light softens, reflections deepen, and the landscape becomes a meditation. It is both vibrant and serene, a reminder of nature’s quiet grandeur and the beauty found in its fleeting, golden hours.
