Late Summer in Westerwald (2026) Original Oil Painting by Liza Illichmann

This painting is my love letter to the idyllic nature of Germany’s Westerwald region and the effortless joy of easy summer living.
I wanted to capture that peaceful moment when sunlit birch trees frame shimmering, calm waters, taking me right back to warm afternoon strolls through our local countryside. Using thick, expressive brushstrokes, I built up rich textures to bring the golden light, dappled leaves, and quiet riverbank to life. For me, this piece is an invitation to pause, take a deep breath, and feel the gentle breeze of a carefree summer day.
