9” x 12” acrylic on canvas board
Unframed
Before this piece, I had tried to paint flowers and would get easily overwhelmed, but after spending time working on my technique and style, this was my first official floral painting. It is an incredibly special piece, as it felt like a new world was opened up to me.
I focused on using my brushstrokes to communicate the colors and textures that I saw. I fell in love with how the dark fuchsia peeks out from in between the lightest pale pink on the petals of the peonies, and the fluffy white puff on the end of the scabiosa stem with which I used slight shifts in gray tones to convey just how full it was. Then there was the rich blue from the vase, it doesn’t take attention away from the flowers, but adds a beautiful focal point with the little bird that is perfectly placed.
This painting is a favorite, and I think it would bring a bit of light and life into a home. It’s just the right size for an entryway, kitchen, on top of a buffet or side board, or as a part of a gallery wall.
