Oil and acrylic on canvas

Mirage is a vision of something too good to be true - a scene suspended between fantasy and reality. Painted in warm, hazy tones and vibrant, highly saturated colours, the piece glows with the heat of an imagined sun, filling the canvas with a sense of wonder and escape.

At the centre, a pool becomes a meeting point for people and wildlife alike: giraffes and zebras lean in to drink alongside tigers, antelopes, and figures basking in the dreamy stillness of the moment. A small plane drifts across the horizon, while flocks of birds circle under a glowing sky, heightening the surreal atmosphere.

This painting is about longing, imagination and that shimmering feeling of paradise glimpsed on the horizon. Like a mirage, it invites you closer, blurring the line between what is real and what is dreamed.
