Original artwork description:

This painting is my homage to the quiet magic of a simple morning. I wanted to capture that fleeting moment when sunlight filters through the vines and gently touches the balcony. Light and shadow dance among the leaves, whispering softly. I used bold contrasts and loose brushstrokes to create a dreamy, warm atmosphere—inviting the viewer to step in and savor the stillness.
I employed impressionistic methods to depict light and movement, using semi-wet oil techniques. Warm tones were blended against cool shadows to evoke spatial depth. Highlights were strategically placed to guide the eye to the table and chairs, emphasizing the interaction between still life and its natural setting.
