Summer Stillness (Xlendi Bay) by Steve Sciberras

Turquoise waters

Summer Stillness by Steve Sciberras is an intimate glimpse of a very Maltese summer afternoon in Xlendi Bay, where quiet conversations and shimmering turquoise water come together in a moment of unhurried calm. The painting celebrates the simple beauty of everyday life in the warmth of the summer sun.

Shoreline Memories by Steve Sciberras

Shoreline Memories, also by Steve Sciberras, is a warm tribute to Malta’s vibrant coastline, where clear blue waters and sunlit beaches bring people together. The scene captures peak summer sunlight hitting the waves along the shoreline.

Ta’ Gordan Lighthouse at Sunset by Christopher Saliba

Rippling summer heat

Ta’ Gordan Lighthouse at Sunset by Christopher Saliba captures the shimmiering summer heat in Gozo, as the last light scatters across the skyline of the familiar landmark.

Drift by Rosette Bonello

Drift, a new abstract work by Rosette Bonello, features crimson and gold in a delicate and intimate dance of the heart.

Verdant greens

Here we reveal a series of new botanical paintings by Lisa Cassar.

Big Fig by Lisa Cassar

Big Fig by Lisa Cassar is a vibrant celebration of this well-known Mediterranean character, with bold forms and expressive brushwork capturing the distinctive forms of the fig leaves.

A symbol of growth, resilience and fertility, the fig tree (siġra tat-tin) is also valued for its generous shade and abundant fruit.

Fading by Lisa Cassar

Painted en plein air in the gardens of the British High Commissioner's residence in Malta, Fading is a harmonious interplay of blues and burnt sienna. The work captures a tranquil corner of lush, abundant growth, evoking a quiet moment where light, colour and nature gently converge.

The Thick of It by Lisa Cassar

The Thick of It invites us inward into dense shade where tall reeds fill the frame and light recedes. The composition is immersive, mysterious and dark.

Common reeds (il-qasba l-kbira) often form dense thickets in Maltese wetlands and valleys. Historically used for everything from musical instruments to traditional construction, these reeds create natural barriers and sheltered habitats. In this work, the species represent a hidden and protective sanctuary.

Under the Carob by Lisa Cassar

Under the Carob is a warm depiction of the carob tree, where dark, ripening pods contrast with the soothing green hues of the foliage. The interplay of colour and form invites the viewer to pause and rest beneath the tree’s generous canopy, evoking a sense of shelter and calm.
