The artwork titled 'Cut Oranges' represents an endeavor to encapsulate the allure of everyday existence. In my north-facing studio, I'm blessed with exquisite natural light, and I aimed to capture its gentle embrace of these segmented orange pieces. This painting serves as a reminder of the intrinsic beauty within even the simplest of objects, such as an orange. It encourages viewers to contemplate that, in life, everything and everyone possesses a unique beauty if we possess the discerning eye to perceive it. The painting's style is a fusion of classical painting techniques reminiscent of the old masters, infused with a contemporary sensibility.
