Artwork Description

The painting in front of you is special; I decided to go with a new approach, working on a massive canvas, and adding new details. This piece of art was painted with my favourite oil paints, with a combination of big strokes and elegant - small ones. The symphony of different bright colours helps the piece stand out more, as the patterns and ornaments add to the experience. The painting is full of different intricate figures; made so your eyes constantly travel the canvas, and thus continuing to surprise you with every new glance, as you see the new elements. If you look closely, you might see a Humpback Whale, Magpies, and a Spanish Flamenco dancer - representing passion with its dance and music. On the foreground is a Gymea Lily Flower, and then there are scattered flowering eucalyptus trees, yachts, a towel on a nice summer beach, albino wallaby, and a road in the mountains.

The style might remind some of fauvism. This painting is for the brave; for those who are ready to discover and rediscover new things on the same canvas, going on a sublime adventure over and over again.
