A geometric celebration of the summer sun
Kristian Gallagher’s work for Modern Tropical Studios translates the lushness of nature into a language of simplified shapes and vibrant hues.

The interaction between the sharp geometric lines and the organic subject matter creates a sense of order and calm, reflecting a deep appreciation for the outdoors.
Drawing on mid-century aesthetics, the artwork strips away unnecessary detail to focus on the interplay of light and shadow through a complementary color palette. The result is a serene landscape that feels both familiar and fresh, capturing the essence of a summer sunset without relying on traditional realism. It is a piece designed for those who find joy in the bright, uncomplicated beauty of the changing seasons.
