About this work

This painting shows a vase of flowers on a shelf. The flowers are mostly red and orange, with some white and yellow ones mixed in. The brushstrokes are thick and rough, making the colors pop against a dark background. The flowers look a bit wild, like they’re spilling out of the vase. The artist’s signature is in the corner, but no date is visible. If you like this bold style, look up impasto.
