About this work

This painting shows a bright red pot holding a bouquet of flowers. The flowers are mostly red with some green leaves and a few white ones mixed in. The background is blurry, with hints of other shapes and colors that don’t stand out clearly. The brushstrokes are thick and visible, giving the flowers and pot a textured look. This style makes the colors pop even more. Look up impasto to learn more about how thick paint like this is used.
