A pink lotus and scattered petals drift across a dark green pond, interrupted by a fallen branch and shimmering bands of reflected light. Layered acrylic brushwork builds the water in broken strokes and translucent passages, giving the surface movement and depth. The result is quiet and immersive, with a vivid green glow that draws the eye across the composition. This work was born from a quiet moment that stayed with me during a trip to Japan. It was not a famous landscape or a tourist attraction, but a peaceful corner where everything felt perfectly balanced. A fallen branch resting in the water, a single flower floating on the surface, and light reflected across the water. Sometimes, it is the simplest moments that remain with us the longest.

My name is Harel Shemesh. I am 20 years old and from Petah Tikva. I primarily create oil paintings, combining rich, vibrant colors with a critical perspective on the reality and society in which we live. My works explore the gap between ideals and reality, as well as themes such as identity, emotions, and human experiences. My creative process begins with a personal idea or emotion and develops through layers of color and symbolism into a work that invites the viewer to interpret it in their own way.
