Peonies on White

This still life if inspired by a bunch of white peonies in a simple terracotta vase. It is painted on a richly textured canvas with artistic brush strokes, fine charcoal lines, smudges and blending. The background is neutral and rustic. The white flowers are rendered with attention in the shape rather than the details and are contrasting with the distressed background. Metallic bronze and gold contribute to the rich look of the painting. Contemporary, in line with modern farmhouse , Hygge and minimalist style, this painting is delicate and soothing.
