About this work

This painting shows a bright yellow background with a simple table edge at the bottom. A clay pot sits on the table, holding three bold red flowers with dark centers and thick green leaves. The brushstrokes are loose, almost sketchy, with some white highlights on the petals. The flowers look like they’re from a tropical place, maybe even the ones mentioned in the title. The colors pop against the yellow, making the red stand out. If you like this style, check out Eleutheriade, Micaela.
