Lausanne Switzerland (Harbor Reflections)

This watercolor cityscape holds its shoreline architecture in a loose, breath-like rhythm, where rusted rooftops and softened facades dissolve into atmosphere rather than declare themselves with certainty. The wide, reflective water becomes the painting’s true subject—an unsettled mirror that fractures the town into drifting planes of sienna, slate, and pale sky, suggesting memory as much as place. Linear masts and inky calligraphic marks anchor the foreground like quiet notes of industry, while the airy distance and small birds overhead widen the scene into a meditation on transience and return.
