The painting is dominated by a division into two main zones. The upper part is occupied by a vast, light pink sky, painted with flat, delicate brushstrokes, suggesting an endless space. The lower part of the painting depicts a more varied, abstract landscape, built with a rich, impasto texture in shades of violet, gray, blue, and subtle accents of warm yellow. The horizon line, separating the sky from the earth, is clearly marked, forming the central compositional element. It is on this line that the eye focuses, and the contrast between the smooth sky and the rich texture of the landscape emphasizes its significance. The abstract forms in the lower part of the painting may suggest hills, fields, or other elements of the natural landscape, transformed by the artist into a unique, painterly language. The subdued, melancholic color palette gives the painting a calm and contemplative character. The rich impasto texture adds a sensual quality to the composition and encourages a close look at the details. “Horizon” is a composition that engages the eye and evokes associations with vast space and the subtle beauty of nature. This small format, with its intimate scale and rich texture, can be a subtle accent in any interior, introducing an atmosphere of peace and contemplation. It is a proposition for lovers of abstraction and landscape who appreciate subtlety and the richness of texture in oil painting.
