Silent Watcher Beyond the Glass

A gray crow perches on the jagged edge of a broken mirror, watching a world divided. Around it, everything is drained of color — a muted, monochrome silence. But within the fragmented reflection, a vivid, glowing reality unfolds: a moment from another dimension, full of light and emotion. This layered painting on MDF panel combines tempera, oil, and acrylic to build depth and atmosphere. Using techniques inspired by the Old Masters, the artist creates a strong contrast between light and shadow, illusion and reality. The result is an evocative image that invites reflection on perception, memory, and inner vision.
