Inflorescence

Acrylic and oil on canvas. 16x20 inches. UV filtered varnish for protection against discolouration. Prints also available. 

The painting presents a striking and surreal portrait of a woman whose eyes are obscured by an intricate cluster of flowers, lending her an air of mystery and introspection. Additional blooms cascade around her neck and collar, creating a natural frame that softens the contours of her face while drawing attention to the delicate details of the petals. Bees hover gently among the flowers, suggesting life, movement, and a quiet harmony between the human figure and the natural world.

Set against a colorful pastel background, the piece radiates a dreamy and ethereal quality. Soft gradients of pinks, blues, and yellows enhance the surreal nature of the composition, creating a light, airy atmosphere that contrasts with the grounded, organic forms of the flowers and bees.
