Description
"Blossom Summer Series" is a radiant celebration of nature’s rhythm and color. Bathed in luminous greens, yellows and aqua blues, the composition swells with fluffy, spherical blooms that flow upward in a dreamlike stream. Blooming trees shelter houses with vibrant red and yellow roofs, grounding the composition with a touch of familiarity beneath the swirling canopy above. The vertical strokes and gradients in the background lend a sense of ethereal light filtering through foliage, enhancing the painting’s serene yet dynamic energy. It’s a poetic fusion of the natural and the fantastical, imbued with warmth and movement.
