This background features an array of variegated blues, greens, and pinks, creating a lively and deeply layered environment. Delicate white branches and clusters of small white flowers add contrasting lightness, weaving through the piece and guiding the viewer’s eye across the canvas. The overall effect is a mesmerizing interplay of color and form, evoking the enchanting and surreal qualities of a magical landscape.
