I've painted these flowers many times - I wait with anticipation every year for the buds to open. They grow along the north facing verandah and flower for such a brief time I have to be quick. Combined with green limes makes for a favourite colour combo. This piece influenced my current body of work of combining interiors in the background. Muted subtle piece with a lovely soft colours.
Protected with Gamblin gloss varnish with a signature to the front of the canvas.

Artwork Description
Artist Bio
Amanda Ogilby is an emerging artist who works primarily in oils, painting fulltime in her home studio overlooking the bush, in Margaret River, Western Australia.
Amanda delights in the texture of oil paint and her ability to manipulate layers of colour in her art. Upon close inspection, textured brush marks give her a visual presence in the work. Often painting from a variety of perspectives, she relishes this medium's qualities, slowly building up tone and form of the objects in her compositions. Through close observation, Amanda focuses on light, reflection and shadow and how they intermingle with objects and botanical influences.
Amanda's art is in response to her immediate surroundings and home. She seeks and finds inspiration from personal treasures, objects old and new. Those often considered mundane and overlooked by the casual glance, however, each with stories and reminders of precious memories. The final composition often depicted with floral elements which strive to depict a sense of serenity and peace.
