Acrylic on paper

Signed on the front.

Inspired by the blushing blooms of a rose garden, this piece adds a touch of romance and charm to a room. I love the structure and softness to a rose and am always amazed by nature's creations.
The rose has a unique duplicitous nature - beautiful soft, and fragrant petals coupled with strong thorny stems - while the eye is captured by the rose's beauty, the thorns lay and wait for the unsuspecting hand to reach in attempting to pluck the flower. Thankfully this piece is without the thorns, but still holds all the beauty nonetheless. If you are looking for a unique spin, it also pairs well with my other rose inspired pieces for a lovely collection or series.
