This painting was inspired by a hike in the Ukrainian mountains and created later from memory. What stayed with me was not the exact view, but the feeling - the endless sky, the rhythm of the hills, and the sense of peace that comes from being surrounded by nature. As someone who now lives far from my homeland, I often return to these landscapes through painting. The mountains become a place where memory and emotion meet. Through loose brushstrokes and soft layers of color, I sought to capture the atmosphere of the Carpathians and the quiet connection I still feel to them.
