Golden Hour Shadows (2026) Original Watercolour by Tetiana Koda

This original watercolor painting captures that striking, dramatic contrast in nature right before or after a summer storm, when golden sunlight bursts through the trees against a moody, deep-blue sky.
I focused heavily on playing with light and shadow here - the left side has a cool, misty, atmospheric cloudiness, while the right side glows with rich amber, yellow, and olive tones. Long shadows from the tall tree trunks stretch across the vibrant grass, creating a feeling of depth that draws you right into the forest edge.
It has a bold, romantic, and deeply atmospheric energy that brings both warmth and mystery to any room.
