Vibrant yellows—golden sunlight and ripe citrus—infuse the canvas with luminous warmth, while lush greens, from emerald to olive, ground the piece with organic richness. Blacks add depth, suggesting cool shadows. The interplay of these colors, applied in energetic strokes, creates a sense of depth and movement that draws the viewer in, making the painting feel alive.
