Untitled 12 (An Elephant's Playful Moment) Watercolor Cityscape painting

Framed within a circular field like a self-contained world, the composition stages a tender negotiation between cultivated city and luxuriant growth, where a thick-trunked tree presides as both guardian and memory. Saturated rooftops and facades—rendered in jewel-like blocks of color—press against the organic rhythm of leaves and patterned groundcover, creating a lively tension between human geometry and nature’s unruly ornament. Light seems to emanate from within the palette itself, turning the scene into a kind of waking dream in which every surface is insistently alive, suggesting resilience and renewal rooted in place. The meticulous detailing—flowers like small emblems, fruit-like dots, and layered textures—invites slow looking, as if the landscape were a map of belonging rather than a mere view.
