Aveiro Street.

Acrylic paint and markers on canvas (stretched on stretcher bars, unframed).

Style: Abstract with architectural elements.

The painting is dominated by green and turquoise tones with accents of dark purple, white, magenta, and metallic gold.

The background consists of layered areas of light and medium green paint with soft, uneven edges. Some of these areas form irregular shapes with drips running downward.

In the upper part of the canvas is a large shape resembling a narrow triangle, its point facing downward, extending nearly to the center of the painting. It is painted in deep red and magenta tones and decorated with several curved metallic-gold bands shaped like arcs.

Running across the middle of the composition is a horizontal architectural silhouette outlined in a thick white line. The line forms a sequence of peaked and stepped shapes. The contour is sharply defined compared to the surrounding painted areas.

At the center of this white outline sits a small eight-pointed star painted in metallic gold.

Below the outlined shape are several long vertical white paint drips extending downward.

The lower half of the painting contains darker turquoise and green areas with loose dark purple lines and oval shapes.

Throughout the composition, different types of contours appear: some forms are defined by crisp marker-like lines, while others are created by softer painted shapes with blurred or irregular edges. This contrast between sharp outlines and diffuse color areas is evident throughout the canvas.

The surface of the painting shows visible canvas texture and layered brushstrokes.
