Apple thief

This painting draws inspiration from my personal memories and imagination. I was deeply influenced by a childhood experience of a village woman who would sneak into a private apple orchard and steal apples from the trees. As a child, I would often stare out the window, eagerly awaiting a glimpse of the woman and her forbidden harvest. The painting captures the magic and nostalgia of this memory, evoking a sense of wonder and mystery. This work is framed.
