Signed on the front.

This captivating impasto painting presents a vivid portrayal of a large iris, meticulously crafted to embody both elegance and strength. The artist has skillfully employed thick, textured brushstrokes to bring the flower to life, each layer of rich acrylic paint capturing the intricate details of the iris's petals. The hues of royal purple and velvety lilac seamlessly blend with hints of white and lavender, creating a dynamic interplay of light and shadow that gives the iris a three-dimensional appearance.
Set against a calming backdrop of deep aqua and cream, the background itself is a masterpiece of texture and color. The impasto technique adds depth and complexity, enhancing the flower's natural grace. This harmonious contrast between the vibrant iris and the soothing background draws viewers in, inviting them to explore the nuanced layers and textures that make this painting a truly immersive experience.
The artist's deft use of color and texture not only captures the essence of the iris but also evokes a sense of tranquility and wonder, making this painting a striking addition to any art collection.

ARTIST BIO

My interest in art was piqued while I was a very young child, sitting and watching my father create his artworks, mostly the Australian landscape. While I love the multi-faceted beauty of artistic creativity, my passion lies in the field of decorative art, expressionist and impressionist styles.

With more than thirty-five years’ experience as an artist I have been inspired by many sources including: the decorative arts movement, nature, cultural heritage and impressionism. My art is a celebration of eclectic creativity and expression, and whether it’s a vibrant abstract piece or a serene landscape, every artwork tells a unique story that resonates on a personal level.

While proficient in a variety of mediums my true medium love is acrylic. I always use the most excellent archival quality acrylic paint and mediums in all my artworks to ensure vibrant colors, lasting durability, that truly brings my creative vision to life.

My art has been exhibited and sold in many Sydney cafes and art exhibitions. My Trompe Loell and other artworks have been featured in Hospital wards in Sydney and Hobart, as well as the Decorative Artist magazine, and have garnered appreciation from art enthusiasts and collectors alike. I am dedicated to pushing the boundaries of artistic expression and continually evolve and experiment with new techniques and styles.

All my artworks are signed (the year is hidden within the painting) and come with a certificate of authenticity.

Each piece of canvas art is finished on the sides, sealed on the back with protective covering, and ready to hang.
