I hope you have come here to enjoy.

All of my work is 100% hand painted by oil on high-class canvas and professional oil paints.

Finished with varnish. In addition, most of my works sides are also painted as a continuation of the

painting and have a finished look. I sell some paintings framed.

This exquisite oil painting, "Candle and Mandarin," captures a moment of quiet contemplation. Crafted with professional oil paints on a sturdy board, each stroke is a testament to meticulous hand-painting. The rich oils are expertly applied and protected with a final varnish, ensuring the vibrancy of the colors for years to come.

Inspired by the interplay of light and shadow, this still life invites you to pause and appreciate the simple beauty of everyday objects. The warmth of the candle's glow contrasting with the deep, rich hues of the mandarin creates a captivating visual dialogue, evoking a sense of intimacy and tranquility.

This delightful artwork would be a wonderful addition to any space, bringing a touch of warmth and sophisticated charm. Its compact size makes it perfect for a cozy nook, a bedside table, or a gallery wall. Imagine it gracing your desk or a small shelf, adding a focal point of serene beauty.
