Painting on canvas, 16" x 20", by Birhanemeskel Girmay
"In my painting, I chose to work with oil on canvas to capture the essence of daily life and the movement of people in a realistic manner. My inspiration stems from the observation of the day-to-day routines and movements of individuals around me. I aimed to depict the beauty and complexity of these ordinary moments, highlighting the subtle nuances and gestures that often go unnoticed. Through my work, I seek to evoke a sense of familiarity and connection with the viewer, inviting them to pause and reflect on the beauty of the everyday." -Birhanemeskel Girmay
