Cloud Layers Over Montseny is a serene artwork capturing the beauty of fog and cloud layers in the Montseny mountains. This ink wash–inspired piece blends nature and minimalism in a timeless style.
Soft layers of clouds gently drape over the Montseny mountains, creating a serene and mystical landscape.

This drawing was inspired by a fleeting, magical moment in the Montseny mountains with cloud layers just after a heavy rainfall in an ink wash style. The air was warm, and the lingering moisture quickly began to rise, forming soft, drifting clouds. A dense fog rolled in, blurring the familiar ridgelines and cloaking the landscape in mystery. The view transformed minute by minute, as the clouds danced through the valleys—then, just as suddenly, they vanished.





This moment sparked the beginning of a new drawing and sketch series I’ve titled Clouds of the World. Each piece explores the shapes, moods, and atmospheres that clouds create in different parts of the globe.


This particular piece—Cloud Layers Over Montseny—is also deeply inspired by traditional Chinese and Japanese ink wash painting. Like those works, it relies on minimal details and invites the viewer’s imagination to complete the scene. If you’re drawn to cloud landscape artwork or minimalist wall art with a serene, meditative quality, this piece may resonate with you.
