Artwork Description
Oil Paint on canvas, stretched and ready to hang
Signed on the front
The floating leaves of the lilies in the main pond in the Brisbane City Botanic Gardens provide a striking contrast between red and green as they catch the sun, and the intervening spaces of peaceful water afford a glimpse into the depths and interesting reflections of the over-arching trees. The perspective I walked past this pond many times on my way to work. I have produced many small, detailed paintings of waterlily leaves and flowers, but always had an urge to go bigger, and this is the result. Of course, I was inspired by Monet, but my style is much more constrained and literal. I think it could make a small room space seem bigger. Alternatively, in a lager space, it would particularly suit a position surrounded by indoor greenery, where a visual plunge into the tranquil pool would invoke a cool, contemplative mood.
