Acrylic on canvas, stretched and ready to hang.
Signed on the front.
This painting was done from my photos of pink Kangaroo Paws growing in my neighbourhood and yellow Kangaroo Paws in my garden. I loved their colour and shape as well as the shadows on their flowers. To paint this picture, I have used artist quality Matisse and Atelier acrylic paints on a top quality canvas which was first prepared with gesso and Clear Painting Medium. I painted the background first in Cobalt Turquoise and Cadmium Yellow Light, then painted a glaze of Permanent Green Light and Cadmium Yellow Light. I then drew the Kangaroo Paws diagonally across the screen and painted the Pink Kangaroo Paws in Brillant Magenta, Pastel Pink and a mixture to give a soft purple for the shadows. I painted the stems in Permanent Alizarin. I painted the yellow Kangaroo Paws in Naples Yellow Light and Burnt Umber, with a brown/yellow mixture. I believe the bright, contrasting colours of the background and the Kangaroo Paws creates vibrancy in the painting. This painting would suit any room and add a splash of colour to the decor. It will be securely packed and ready to hang when you receive it.
