Piece description from the artist
A vibrant and whimsical cityscape scene focuses on the majestic Flatiron Building in New York City. The iconic architecture is rendered in a style that blends realism with imaginative flair, showcasing bold, saturated colors that amplify its inherent beauty. A flock of stylized birds gracefully soars over the building, adding a sense of freedom and playfulness to the urban environment. On the sidewalk below, a man strolls with his dog, contributing to the overall sense of scale and injecting a touch of everyday life into the fantastical composition. The artwork celebrates the Flatiron Building's timeless appeal while embracing a joyful, dreamlike atmosphere through my unique color palette and imaginative additions.
