Lotus Leaves. Rays on Calm Water.

Oil on canvas.

30x40x1"

Bending gently toward the surface, the lotus leaves are slightly curled — a quiet sign of the season's end. Their shapes have grown more graphic, more beautiful in their subtle decay. Shades of blue-green blend with warm browns, creating a soft harmony of color and texture. A gentle warm yellow light, like the last rays of the day, brushes over the scene from above. The painting, rooted in impressionist sensibility, invites the viewer into a moment of stillness — a fleeting pause filled with calm and quiet beauty.
