Vibrant abstract painting built on a creamy beige base with layered, energetic brushwork. Thick, sweeping strokes of pale blue, cerulean, and deep ultramarine create swirling, dripping forms and overlapping patches.
A strong block of tangerine orange enters from the left, contrasting the cooler tones. Subtle pale lilac and white accents add delicate highlights.
Ruffled, cloud-like masses in light blues and whites float at the top, while curving dark outlines and irregular vessel-like contours in bold blue frame and spill downward. Rich impasto, fluid drips, wet-on-wet blending, and scraped textures generate lively movement and depth.
The result is joyful, intuitive, and atmospheric — pure abstraction brimming with emotional energy and painterly delight.

The painting will be sent to the customer rolled in a tube, the buyer is responsible for stretching the artwork, upon its arrival.
