The perpendicular urban view gave Khawam the freedom to work on a painting from all four sides, no matter how the painting was turned which reveals almost the same visual result. The focus is on the waterfront luxury homes, swimming pools, boats, yachts, and cars to form a network of geometric semi-abstracted shapes. The composition was formed around flat shapes with joyful color palette to reflect the spirit of Florida’s landscape with the sunshine and endless waterways, canals, lakes, and golden beaches. He portrays the inhabitant’s love and dialogue with the urban landscape around the intracoastal waterway along Ocean Drive in South Florida, stretching between Miami to Palm Beach and beyond to the Northern points of Florida” Khawam said.
