About the Artwork:
"In the embrace of the Mediterranean's radiant glow, I found a dance of light and shadow, passion and tranquility. This painting is my ode to its ceaseless whispers and the tales it tells beneath every cresting wave."
The painting was created with oil paints on a uniquely textured composite aluminum panel.
Thanks to the use of spacers, the artwork “floats” on the wall in an aura of beautiful light, made possible by the app-controlled LED backlighting.

“Andrew Manaylo's "Glow of the Mediterranean" from the esteemed Côte d’Azur Art Series is a striking testament to the pulsating energy and enigmatic beauty of the Mediterranean Sea. This masterpiece is a mélange of vivid cerulean blues juxtaposed against rich, fiery ambers, evoking the sun's radiant embrace as it kisses the deep waters. The sporadic bursts of crimson serve as a poignant reminder of the life force that flows beneath the waves, the blood of mythical creatures, perhaps, or the fervor of passionate encounters. Manaylo's technique, with its sweeping brush strokes and textured applications, gives the canvas a multi-dimensional quality, as if the sea's waves are crashing out of the frame and into our reality. The abstract fluidity of the work, combined with its emotionally charged palette, encourages the observer to dive deep into the Mediterranean's lore, only to resurface with a profound appreciation for its eternal allure.”
