Garden with swimming pool by Vlindertuin-Art

Artwork description:
The work depicts a swimming pool in a garden, seen from an elevated perspective. The composition focuses on the corner of the pool, where water, tiling and planting meet. Shadows of shrubs and trees outside the frame are visible in the water. Along the edge, plants grow in various forms, with clear separations in colour and texture. The image is divided into planes with clear contours, in which water surface, vegetation and paving alternate. Reflections in the water reinforce the sense of depth and layering.

Why you want this hanging on your wall:
The work depicts a calm and closed scene in which nature and human design intersect. The composition evokes associations with sunlight, stillness, outdoor space and the play between light and shadow. The repetition of shapes and the reflection in the water create a visual balance. This makes the artwork suitable for spaces where a sense of space, order and calm is desired. The layering in the sculpture invites looking without being overwhelming.

Colour palette:
The palette includes shades of green in different shades, ranging from light green to blue-green to dark green. The water is composed of shades of turquoise, blue and cyan, with reflections in deeper blues and shadows in violet and dark purple. The planting shows shades of orange, red, olive and grey-green. The tiles around the pool are done in cream, beige and soft yellow.

Style of work:
The style is figurative with graphic elements. The shapes are clearly outlined and built up in areas of colour with no visible brushwork. The structure of the water surface is stylised, with a grid of wavy lines suggesting the play of light. The rendering of plants, shadow and reflection is done in a systematic manner, combining observation with formal simplification. The work is on the cutting
