Protea

The protea flower symbolise diversity, change and courage. This work highlights the bold geometric shapes and colours of the flower against a dramatic black background.

This painting is completed with only a palette knife to give texture, bold colour and movement.

Professionally presented in a black shadow box frame ready-to-hang.

Originally‚ I picked up the palette knife to loosen my painting technique. With a brush in hand‚ I was often tempted to agonise over the detail. I actually love the loss of control that the knife provides and the application of oil paint with its buttery texture.
