Artist's Notes
This is another rose from my garden, only later. The petals had mostly fallen, and the bright peach had faded to a soft, luminous white, though traces of warmth still glowed in the center. With its structure fully revealed, the flower felt bare but somehow even more alive. There was a kind of honesty in its openness, something quietly arresting in its vulnerability.
I painted it against a deep plum ground, loose and expressive, to mirror the tension between softness and energy. The brushwork moves more freely here, giving the composition breath and urgency. Even as it faded, this flower held so much presence. I wanted to honor that, to show that beauty doesn’t disappear as things fall apart. Sometimes it becomes more vivid.
Product Description
Product Description
An original oil painting created by the artist using traditional materials and a slow, attentive process. Each work is conceived and painted by hand, offering a singular object shaped by observation, intuition, and time.
Painted in a layered, expressive realist style, these works explore the emotional resonance of familiar botanical subjects and quiet moments drawn from the natural world. The focus is not on spectacle but on nuance: subtle shifts of light, gesture, and surface that invite prolonged looking.
Each painting is executed on archival-quality, gallery-wrapped canvas using professional-grade oil paints. The sides are painted, and a hanging wire is installed on the back, allowing the work to be displayed unframed or framed to the collector’s preference.
Every original painting is signed on the reverse and accompanied by a signed and sealed Certificate of Authenticity and a handwritten thank-you card.
