Description

Part of the ongoing On Holiday series, Lemons II celebrates the quiet beauty of everyday rituals. A simple bowl of lemons becomes both still life and souvenir, inspired by mornings in Italy where ordinary objects seem to carry extraordinary light.

Painted with confident, expressive brushwork, the composition balances bold graphic forms with a restrained coastal palette of deep blues, warm ochres, and soft greys. The result feels timeless, equally at home in a kitchen, breakfast nook, library, or layered into a larger salon wall.

Small in scale but full of presence, Lemons II reflects the spirit of the On Holiday collection: paintings inspired by travel, hospitality, and the simple pleasures that make a place unforgettable.
