Sunlit Terrace Palm

This painting was created en plein air in Alanya, Turkey, capturing a fleeting moment of warm light and moving air. The palm tree becomes the focal point, its leaves shaped as layered parallelograms, an intriguing challenge to observe and interpret rather than simply copy. The atmosphere was constantly shifting between sun and softness, and I aimed to catch that delicate balance of calm, light, and breeze. The result is a quiet impression of southern warmth and the живий процес роботи з натури.
