Landscape painting on canvas paper. 8.27 inches by 11.69 inches, unframed

This painting captures a quiet moment of presence — a figure seated at the edge of a vast, unknowable world. The water, the sky, the distant mountains all merge into a kind of internal landscape, where reflection becomes both literal and symbolic. In this work, I explore the space between observation and imagination — where the viewer is not just looking at nature, but feeling it. The figure, turned away, invites us into their stillness, reminding us of the solitude and wonder that arise when we simply stop and see. Through layered color and expressive brushwork, I aim to evoke a sense of peace tinged with longing — a dreamlike place where time is suspended and the self dissolves into sky and water.
