Home is an interior oil painting I created from direct observation while standing in my living room and looking towards the kitchen.

I was drawn to the contrast between light and dark created by the wall and door dividing the two spaces, with the French windows at the back revealing the garden outside—the source of the light and colour.

It took two painting sessions to complete this piece, but it was worth it.

I enjoy combining nature with interior scenes, as it brings a sense of liveliness, naturalness, and happiness to the work.
