Waterfall Paradise – S. Aubanel – Original Acrylic on Canvas – 35x46 in
 
 
 
About the Artwork: "Waterfall Paradise" is a lush, hyper-detailed vision of an untouched rainforest oasis, vibrating with color and reverence. S. Aubanel masterfully captures a majestic waterfall cascading through the heart of the canvas, feeding a crystal-clear, stone-laden river. The composition is a symphony of biodiversity: tropical birds perch in the high canopy, while a lone flamingo sips at the water’s edge.
 
Aubanel’s brushwork is layered and meditative, elevating this landscape into a "spiritual landscape." The verticality of the piece creates a cathedral-like forest scene, where dangling vines and rising mist provide an immersive, cinematic depth. This painting functions as a living portal, inviting the viewer to step out of the everyday and into a sanctuary of ecological wonder and stillness.
