This extraordinarily long lasting bouquet of gorgeous bright orange Gerber daisies sat on my dining room table for weeks! As long as I kept refreshing their water and trimming their stems, they kept blooming joyfully. I painted three separate and quite different portraits of the bouquet during that time. This was the second of the three. The bunch of flowers was not in a blue and white spotted vase, but the painting seemed to need one. So, mimicking the shape of the very mid-century stoneware vase they were actually in (which was thrown by my lovely husband several years ago when we were making ceramic work together) I created the basic line and then added the pattern freehand. The pale and ultramarine blue spotted vase offers a subtle contrast against the rich emerald green that covers the background and provides such a striking contrast against the vibrant orange, peach, and pink petals. Bright chartreuse green centers pop in the middle of the flowers, adding to their overall sunshiney feel. This original, Matisse-inspired, maximalist floral painting will ship from my East Bay studio, lovingly wrapped in layers of acid-free glassine and soft padding.
