Original artwork description:

Style and Mood: Dramatic Realism (Chiaroscuro). A deep, mysterious dark background powerfully contrasts with the warm, luminous orange. This is not merely still life, but an emotional narrative about light breaking through the darkness.

Texture : Impasto and Tactility. Highly textured, raised brushstrokes (impasto) give the orange peel realistic porosity and the cut segment a sense of moisture and juiciness. The canvas and paint application are palpable.

Technical : Feature Inner Illumination. The unique glow is achieved through the artist's signature multilayered technique: a bright acrylic underpainting serves as an oil base, forcing the fruit's warm tones to literally radiate light from the dark setting.

Composition : The Dynamics of Rondo. Centered around the spiral of the peeled rind, the composition introduces vertical dynamic and a contemporary feel. The title "Rondo" refers to the cyclic form and musical harmony.

Materials used:

Maimeri oil paints and auxiliary material Schmincke oil colours Brushes, mastichins.
