Description

This painting depicts a majestic mountain scene with Mayon Volcano in the center of the frame. The sky is filled with fluffy white clouds and tall trees line the base of the mountain. In front of this stunning landscape lies a river, where a water buffalo or carabao can be seen wading through its waters. At the base of the volcano and further to its right, there are images of nipa huts on both sides of the riverbanks.

Atop some rocks near the lake sits a palm tree, adding another layer of depth to this beautiful piece of art. The background consists mostly of grass and water which creates an interesting contrast between all these different elements. This framed painting captures nature’s beauty perfectly and will surely make for an eye- catching addition to any home or office space!
