"Holiday": A Moment of Serenity in a Bustling World

 In the midst of a bustling city, it's often the simplest moments that bring the greatest joy. My artwork, Holiday, created around the year 2000, reflects a time when I was living in an urban setting surrounded by concrete and noise. Even then, nature was never far from my thoughts. This painting captures my appreciation for those quiet, green spaces and the comfort they brought me.


A piece depicting a child basking in sunlight amidst nature. The vibrant colors and dreamy expression are its distinct highlights.



The scene depicts a peaceful moment: a young figure stands on what seems to be a floating vessel, bathed in sunlight. Above them, vibrant, round trees stretch toward the sky, their deep green leaves contrasting with bursts of playful color—red, blue, and yellow dots dancing across the backdrop. The bold black frame ties everything together, adding a dreamlike quality to the composition.

Looking back, I remember how much I valued these escapes from the daily rush. Living in the city could be overwhelming, but I always made time to visit a nearby park. It became a sanctuary where I could reconnect with nature and find calm amidst the chaos.

Holiday is a tribute to these cherished moments. Its title serves as a reminder of the joy in stepping away from the everyday to savor life’s simple pleasures: the warmth of sunlight, the gentle sway of trees, and the beauty of being present.
