Garden Specter Strandtuch

A whimsical and surreal painting featuring a classic, cartoon-like ghost figure—a white sheet with black holes for eyes and an open mouth—centered in a lush, stylized garden or forest setting. The background is dominated by gold leaf and broad, expressive strokes of light pink and gold suggesting trees. The foreground is a dense array of abstract foliage and bushes painted in thick, vibrant colors including lavender, bright green, teal, and blue. The overall aesthetic is naive, dreamlike, and uses a striking combination of flat, folk-art elements and rich, textural embellishment.
