Expressive and sophisticated rendering of flowers, presumably peonies or roses, painted in a loose, dynamic style with a palette knife. The flower petals are composed of thick layers of white paint, subtly mixed with tones of soft pink, cool blue, olive green and accents of deep dark green and black. The beige background holds its own in the background, doing full justice to the flowers.
The brush and knife strokes are energetic, sometimes rough, but always placed with feeling. This creates a wonderful balance between abstraction and recognisability: the flowers remain clearly visible, but partially lose themselves in the movement of the paint. The dripping paint and wiped-out corners suggest impermanence, as if the moment of bloom is captured at the tipping point of disappearance.
The whole breathes both strength and tenderness - an ode to floral beauty in its most poetic form. It is a painting that lives, that almost smells, that speaks in colour and texture.
