Lavender Afternoon

Escape to this serene garden pool scene where striped loungers rest beneath a wide ivory umbrella and a lilac-and-cream float drifts lazily in turquoise water. Lush hedges and a tall cypress frame the moment, while blooming hydrangeas spill from a terracotta pot like a quiet celebration of summer. The painting captures that delicious pause in the day — when the air is warm, the water is still, and time slows to a gentle ripple.
