Grapefruits in the Evening - Original Oil Painting - Citrus Wall Art - 9 inches

A sunset glow on ruby red slices.

"Grapefruits in the Evening" is a moody and atmospheric original oil painting that captures the drama of late-day light. The composition features luscious grapefruits, some whole and some sliced to reveal their deep, glistening ruby red interiors. A simple kitchen knife rests beside them, suggesting a moment of preparation paused. The scene is bathed in warm, golden light that ignites the orange skins, casting long, cool purple and blue shadows that evoke the feeling of a quiet evening.

Painted on a 23x23 cm (approx. 9x9 inch) handmade wood panel, this piece is a masterclass in contrast. Alai’s signature impasto brushwork creates a juicy texture for the fruit pulp, while the interplay between the hot highlights and the cool shadows gives the painting a three-dimensional depth. It’s a sophisticated, colorful addition to a kitchen, dining room, or bar area.

Why this original is a fresh pick:

• Dramatic Lighting: The specific "evening" lighting creates a richer, more emotional mood than standard bright daylight scenes.
• Rich Palette: The combination of ruby reds, warm oranges, and deep purples creates a luxurious and comforting color scheme.
• Textural Depth: The thick paint application makes the segments of the grapefruit look bursting with juice and flavor.
