Rainbow Over the Market: An Oil Painting

An expansive market square bathed in warm golden-hour light, rendered in thick oil paint with visible impasto. A brilliant rainbow arches across a storm-cleared sky above rows of colorful stalls with striped awnings, baskets of fruit, spices, and textiles. Wet cobblestones reflect the spectrum of colors, enhancing the painterly texture. Vendors and shoppers mingle: a fruit seller counting coins, a child with a balloon, a street musician. Rich, saturated colors, dramatic light, and textured brushwork give a painterly realism, with crisp detail on stalls and reflections and softer edges on distant figures.
