30×40’ acrylic

This non-naturalistic palette, where the lake is rendered in saturated strokes of cobalt and orangs and reds rather than standard blue. In the background, the clouds lose their soft edges, appearing as thick, impasto swirls of soft cadmium orange sky over the lake.

This lake painting reflections in the water do not ripple but instead break into a series of rigid, kaleidoscopic rectangles, mirroring the forest in a fragmented, cubist-inspired. Every brushstroke is deliberate and visible, channeling the wild energy of the Fauvist movement by prioritizing color expression over realistic representation. The overall composition transforms a serene landscape into a high-contrast spectacle of light.
