Set within an abstract futuristic seascape, the painting invites viewers into a world marked by an eclectic sky featuring two moons. Bright, vibrant colours starkly contrast with soft brushstrokes, while the artist's use of finger painting and palette knife introduces intricate details discernible only upon close inspection.
The piece evokes a vivid yet nostalgic atmosphere, reflecting a time that could have been but never was. Dominated by many shades of phthalo blue and ultramarine, with subtle hints of turquoise, the scene is punctuated by the intense deep yellow light of a powerful sun. This interplay of colours encapsulates the perpetual struggle between darkness and light.
Embedded within this visual narrative is a poem, bridging the realms of present and reality. The artwork's layers of texture and colour embody a sense of longing and contemplation, inviting the viewer to reflect on possibilities and what might have been. The overall composition melds vivid imagination with emotional depth, creating a striking tribute to unrealized dreams and the passage of time.
