The 12" x 9" canvas captures a blue and white vase overflowing with a collection of freshly cut summertime blooms. The flowers come alive in saturated pinks and oranges with touches of white. The painting maintains an engaging fresh simplicity while recognizing texture and detail in a way that uniquely portrays the nature of the flowers, vase and the reflected shadows and light.

What inspired me in painting this arrangement was a strong feeling of being out in the summer sun surrounded in a garden of radiant colorful flowers. There was a strong positive energy in the bouquet that was hard to resist.

I painted artwork on a gallery wrapped canvas in oils. This is a signed original artwork that comes wired to hang. The painting can also be framed. less
