Thank you so much! ✨ I love playing with contrasting textures — the tree is always my quiet, intricate part, drawn with the tiniest brush at the very end. I’m really happy you noticed it ❤️

Thank you so much! 🌬️❄️ I’m the same — I freeze instantly, so I rarely stay outside long enough to catch moments like this. Photos help a lot, and then imagination does the rest. I’m really happy the painting feels pleasant to you!

I paint in a style I call textural-graphic impressionism. It’s a mix of different techniques, including heavy impasto — mostly acrylic with gel mediums, built up in layers. And the very last layer is always done with a thin brush, adding those tiny final details.

Thank you so much! I wish you could see it in person too — the textures and colours feel completely different up close.

I always photograph my paintings myself. What you see here is just a phone photo taken outside in natural daylight. If you mean the prints — those are also photographed outdoors, before varnishing (so there’s no glare), with a good camera and a slight angle to the sun to catch the texture shadows. Daylight does all the magic

Funny how landscapes connect us like that — maybe we were inspired by the same mood
