Pink and Purple Dahlias with Dark Buds - Mint Green Background - Dahlia Edition

The visual

The composition gathers a multitude of dahlia flowers with tapered petals, painted in a range from powder pink to scarlet red, with bordeaux hearts almost black that structure the whole. The mint green background reveals touches of coral orange in the background, creating an unexpected depth. The stems and sage green foliage provide a soothing contrast to the dense floral masses. The pictorial gesture is broad and assumed, with visible brushstrokes that give movement to each petal. The light seems to come from above, making the lightest shades sparkle. This floral painting evokes the expressive style of contemporary still life, between suggested realism and gestural abstraction. The whole overflows from the frame, reinforcing the impression of abundance and vitality.
