Prompt: Scene Mixing Palette Knife and Impasto Techniques: Yin and Yang of Life
Foreground: The scene is split into two halves, representing the duality of life—Yin and Yang. On the left side, a young sapling grows from the rich, dark soil. The sapling is tender and full of life, its leaves rendered in smooth palette knife strokes, capturing their delicate nature. The soil around it is textured with thick impasto, highlighting the nurturing environment. Small, vibrant flowers bloom near the base, symbolizing new beginnings and growth.
Right Side: On the right side, an ancient, weathered tree stands tall. Its bark is rough, with deep grooves created by bold palette knife strokes.
