The Fortress of Qeparo

Medium: Oil on Canvas
Dimensions: 23.6 × 27.6 in
A hilltop structure rises above a landscape of saturated greens, violets, blues, and ochres. The terrain is organized through broad angular planes that guide the eye upward toward the fortress. Thick applications of paint create a textured surface where vegetation, pathways, and architectural elements are woven together through color and contour. The composition is anchored by the contrast between the elevated structure and the surrounding hills.
