Ruby Hour

The 60 x 80 cm canvas, entitled “Ruby Hour”, depicts a girl in a fiery red dress. She stands on a terrace, facing the sea, painted in the soft tones of the setting sun. Her long chestnut hair flutters in the wind, forming soft waves that contrast with the clear lines of her dress. In her hand is a glass of red wine, the color of which echoes the shade of her dress and the reflections of the sunset on the water.

The girl is lost in thought, her gaze directed into the distance, beyond the horizon. Her face reflects melancholy, but not sadness, but rather thoughtfulness, contemplation. The ruby light of the setting sun softly falls on her skin, emphasizing the smooth lines of her figure. Overall, the painting conveys a feeling of peace, calm and mystery. It is like a frozen moment, where the beauty of nature and the inner world of a woman merge, giving birth to an atmosphere of quiet happiness and hidden drama. I tried not only to depict the model, but also to convey her inner state, subtle experiences, because we can only guess what she is thinking about.
