Persimmon season came and you can see bright orange fruits here and there.
No one picked them so very special guests appeared.
Are they kind friends who came to help or just intruders?
Have they come from somewhere far away or just appeared in the air from the parallel universe?
There is some ambiguity in this piece and the author wants the viewer to take a guess, ask questions, doubt and think about the atmosphere and the mood of this artwork instead of just accepting the author’s explanation.
The artwork is painted in limited color palette with orange and blue being the main colors. Orange and blue are complementary (opposite) colors of the color circle, which when mixed cancel each other but placed next to each other create the strongest contrast. That also emphasizes ambiguity of the artwork.

Japan
I find subjects for my art in my everyday life in Japan and during trips, I’m hugely inspired by architecture, nature and culture of this beautiful country.
Painting is not only an image but a story, so the viewer could look into it and feel the wind in sakura branches, touch the wood of an old house that stayed there for the centuries, dive into calm and modest atmosphere of the old Japanese shop or restaurant.
I paint only what I've seen in real life, en plein air or in my studio from photos that I take during walks and trips. Though I don’t limit myself with media but found watercolor with its transparency and lightness to be the most challenging and suitable for me at the moment.
