Pastel on paper , framed in natural maple with off-white mat, 26.5”X 32”

A warm, sunlit interior unfolds in this pastel—an invitation into a slow Florentine afternoon. Figures lounge, read, talk, and drift in and out of presence, as if held together by the hum of summer heat and friendship. Every gesture feels unhurried: a woman resting in a chaise, another mid-conversation, fruit glowing on the table like small suns.

Mediterranean color floods the scene—peach walls, turquoise shadows, bowls of figs and peaches—and the open shutters lead the eye outward to more light, more air. The atmosphere is intimate yet expansive, a room filled with life and softness, where time seems to stretch like linen across the day.

Framed in natural maple with an off-white mat, the work feels both fresh and timeless—an interior that breathes with ease, joy, color, and the pleasure of simply being together.
