Piece description from the artist
In this artwork, I sought to explore the raw and rugged beauty of untouched landscapes. Using vibrant oils, I layered and blended earthy browns, orange hues and emerald green in a manner that invites the viewer into an abstract yet viscerally familiar world. This painting embodies the restless spirit of nature and the unbridled freedom it instills, aiming to bring a dynamic and inspiring energy into any space it inhabits.
