Moon Fire is a compact oil study, just 3 by 4 inches, capturing a moment when the full moon commands the night sky. The moon casts steady light over water that catches flickers of yellow, orange, and white, its surface resonating with reflected movement. Swirling clouds in deep blue and fiery orange create contrast, while dark tree silhouettes anchor the scene with calm. In painting this, I focused on balancing vivid color with textured brushwork to convey both energy and stillness, exploring how light and shadow shape the quiet drama of night.
