About this work

This painting shows a simple still life of flowers in a bowl. The flowers are mostly pink and red, with some green leaves mixed in. The background is blurry, with soft browns and whites that fade into each other. The brushstrokes are thick and visible, giving the painting a textured look. The colors pop against the muted background, making the flowers stand out. If you like this style, look up impasto.
