About this work

This painting shows two bright flowers in tall vases. The petals are thick and bold, painted in warm yellows and reds. Behind them, a dark blue wall and a white cloth add contrast. The brushstrokes are loose and visible, giving the flowers a textured look. The artist didn’t smooth out the paint—it’s almost like you can feel the strokes. Check out impasto to see how thick paint like this works.
